6mt Coupe Owners ... Which gear and rpm does your G pull the most?

As you can see id just like to know for all you 6mt coupe owners which gear "pulls" the most for you. As for me its 3rd gear @ 3400-4500 rpm -- Stock ... anyone else?

Probably second gear for me, from like 2700 to 4500.... so I can still accelerate fast but still stay within the speed limit of most streets. First gear doesn't get much pull on hard rolling acceleration because the tires just spin.

This is the first car I've owned that 3rd gear pulls the hardest. Even 4th is fun. In my past cars 2nd always was the best gear to floor.

3rd for me... let's say you guys are driving ~50mph in 4th... do you guys drop it to 2nd and squeeze the last few mph or just go to 3rd? and if u go to 3rd... at what pt would it be more beneficial to drop to 2nd?
