Time to argue?! When to shift

forgive the crappiness of this quick drawing, but I think you will get the idea...

So judging from your drawing you would want to shift before you hit the rev limiter (obviously) but AFTER you have passed peak HP?

So hypothetically, my Civic redlines at 6,800 (which is where I assume the rev limiter kicks in) but is at peak HP at 6,500. So my ideal shifting point would be around 6,650 or thereabout?

Is that accurate in comparison to your drawing?

If so, you might as well make it simple and say "shift before redline."
