From a dig in a manual

Does it seem to everyone else like after 1st gear is through there's only about 2k RPMs before you have to shift to 3rd?

I have 3.73 gears And a roush 2.3 blower...

You can see what I mean in the dragy pic below

It's just the gearing of the trans. Normally you don't want the rpms to have to big of a drop after a shift.

Might also be the stock roush tune, cuts power early as well

This used to happen on my 14, sucked trying to get it to hook on the street. Felt like 1st through 3rd would just fly by
