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

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.
