hmmm thats a good plan but when i race i usually dont powershift i have to let off the gas so i can make it home because my tranny always locks out gears (t-5 suprise) so i usually just use the race to see my shift points.... if im being pulled on (cause i always get off the line when i had posi) i use the race as an indicator when to shift, when i raced a del sol with gsr swap and turbo i was being pulled so i shifted @ 6200-6500 to compliment my granny shifts.

I say if you powershift then peak hp is when to shift so when you dab the clutch you have a little leeway before redline before you tach it overkill style and it wont be bad to build the gear again. if you granny shift like muoy you want every bit of rpm before you shift because the revs drop hard and have to build up more...

P.S. DO NOT ****ING TRY TO SHIFT A STOCK MUSTANG @ 6.5K or you will blow sumthing high rpm intakes help.
