when you are flooring the car, and it starts to bog, then you know to shift ^-^

I have a shift sounder in my car. I go into the red part of that tach thingy and wait until it goes "NAHNAHANANANANANANAN!!!!". :P

are you asking racing or just driving? when i just drive normal i shift at 2500-3000 rpms. When your racing just shift before or at redline.

you wanna shift to wheras it'lll put you back into peak power, no use shifting at your powerspike because it'll just drop you into a shitty rpm with no power

Re: shift point caculater.
 
There are two schools on how to shift. One is shifting so you have the same power before and after the shift, and ride the power peak. The other is shifting to give maximum area under the curve.

Shifting when the rev limiter hits is losing a lot of time.

yeah exactly, most of the time its faster to shift earlier than ride it out as far as you can

Thanks. Someone got my humor. Oh yea, I don't hit the rev limiter. When I'm raping it I shift around redline about 6750 - 7250. Mostly about 7000.

When I am at the track I just listen for the rev limiter... it will tell me when to shift.
