The limiter pops up at like 7200. I used to just go to 7 and shift.

Revving the piss out of your motor doesnt mean making power.
RPM is an acronym for "ruins peoples motors".

6800 RPM's is where your motor is making its peak power.

But you dont want to shift where its making the peak power, you want to shift after that, so when the rpms drop they will be closer to the peak.
