Intro and Shift Point Analysis

[Zombo]

Hi all. I'm new here and wanted to thank you folks for all the good info I've been gleaning. I'm thinking about acquiring a 2017, when they become available (I'm on a couple of dealer lists).

I thought I would share a shift point analysis (attached) I did on the GT350. The dyno curve is a screen shot from the Motor Trend TV review of the red GT350 tested with Randy Pobst. Final drive is ignored as it doesn't impact shift points.

In a nutshell, redline shifting is best up until the 4th to 5th shift, which is best done at 8000rpm, but by that time your doing 140mph, so it probably doesn't matter...
