I have to go out now but I'll run these numbers down the RPM range more because my peak RPM is 450 at 3000 RPM (well, it was before I changed my intake and carb).

So if I look to be at 3000 after I shift, that means I'm shifting at 4024 RPM. Ironically, one of my best ever 0-60 times was when I shifted at 4000 because I was losing traction in 1st gear.

NOW I really need some track time!
