My car sure doesn't feel like it's peaking even at 7000.

Feel and real can sometimes be way different. I raced an old GTI in IT enduros with an old friend and it felt (and sounded) like you were just flying shifting it at 8k. Lap times didn't quite agree, and by not quite I mean it went the fastest when we shifted it at 5800!
