Actually, he asked many questions in the OP. Including, specifically: Am I understanding this right that absent a big drop off in torque curve, it is almost always better to go up to redline than to shift up?
I like that theory. I also like the one where you gear a bit lower than everybody else to get a better start, recover from mistakes/balked by traffic quicker. Then a bit taller on top so that you can utilize the tow off of cars in faster classes. Damn! Need more gears!!!!!Originally Posted by Steve Demeter
