I keep my RPM's around 3-4k and shift up at redline. On the Dragon I'm constantly between 2nd through 4th. On the roads you followed me on it was 2nd through 5th. I say upgrade those brakes and do both!!!
I see what you saying, Nick. Appreciate your interest in helping me to fine tune my driving /car knowledge... I really respect your input and knowledge, as BTW, everyone else does...Carl
