[QUOTE="ponygt65, post: 8015944, member: 29536"] I respectfully disagree. maybe I misunderstand what you are saying, but it appears you are suggesting to whine out every gear to redline. Sorry, but depending on how close the tranny gears are, that 'may' take you out of ideal powerband of the next gear. IDK if your comment of dyno sheets was in reference to my posting them or not, but in case it is (or if anyone takes it that way) I merely posted them because Mark requested it. I believe Mark understands the point I was trying to make. The gap between 1st and sec. is ~1.38's difference but 2-3 is only ~.65. The shift points will be different in relation to where the power is being made. Given every car is different with power bands and gears, that will make a difference on where you shift. Also, on a side point, Magazine racers shift all cars all gears at or near redline and post up some of the crappiest times. I guess all of this depends heavily on what one would call 'short shifting'. IMO the suggestion I made (pending some variable rpms, we all know he has to 'test it out') has been tried and proven in a 3650 with the mach motor light bolt on tune or untuned. No disrespect to you stampede as your experience speaks for itself and you have way more seat time than I (I'm only 30 HA!), but I've also taken a few trips down the 1320 and pulled better times than most were able too. I don't ever expect to do that with any given car though, as i don't know every car. That's my two cents anyway. [/QUOTE]
