The best runs have been shifting at 5600rpm's. Even so, for bracket racing I shift at 5000rpm's, no need to grind up the engine and the car still runs well into the 11's with the lower shift points. It also leaves me a bit of room if I happen to slip just a bit on the launch. I can buzz the engine a bit harder and make up the ET in a close race.....Cliff

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
