What RPMs do you shift at?

[spike68]

I was driving around campus today and I started noticing what RPMs I shift at. I didnt normally pay attention to that cause I mainly just listen to the sound. But I saw that I shift just under 3000 RPMs through my gears.

So what RPMs do other R3v members shift at?






Sorry automatic guys.

Around 4k before it warms up. I haven't paid way too much attention to the RPMs I shift at for relaxed driving though. I have more of a timing rhythm to it and habitually shift into X+1 gear S seconds after shifting into X gear--this is when I'm just not giving it any thought.

Yeh around 4-5k mark, the M42 loves the revs

[CabbE30]

Over 9000

you're good at making shit sound complicated as fuck.

for me, I don't really pay attention to when I shift.
sometimes when I'm feeling lazy as shit, I'll rev it up a couple grand over and skip a gear

It is one gutless engine though, only useful for a point A-B.

For me:

b27-@3k normal driving
b25-@4.5k
M42-@5.5k

3k max until it warms up and then whatever is suitable for the situation.

[CabbE30]

The RPM I shift at is inversely proportional to how expensive gas prices are.

So... redline?

So... redline?

At least once every time I drive.

I can't take anything seriously when I see your avatar.

jlevie was saying something about shifting ~6750?

[dashboardmonkey]

I shift around 3500 usually. But i skip gears alot so i also shift at 5500 alpt. Also sees redline daily. Love the sound of the m50. The stupid loud cone filter and magnaflow muffler is nice to hear.
