i usually shift at 3000... you waste less gas the lower your rpms... just don't get too low to the point where your motor is dieing...

but i usualy down rev match to like 6 to catch that last rpm right before i switch off and jump in front of beemers like powwwwww b!tch...

oh yeah.. i dont have a car.... these old war stories of mine

*edit* this is when i had the VQ HR

we need to be more efficient lets not waste RPM's red line it all the time in my opinion, plus we need to show the gas industry the gas prices are not affecting us =)
