Could I go faster?
Is there any advantage to short-shifting the car in order to go a tad faster? The 03 S engine hp peaks @ 6,250 and the torque peaks @ 4,300. Wouldn't the optimal range be between these figures? The redline is 7,200rpm and I frequently hit 7,000-7,200. Is it still faster to take it to redline when wanting maximum thrust or is short-shifting the best way?
