I am just wondering when people shift. I usually do around 2500-3000 but some of my friends ride it all the way to about 5000 sometimes. I dont know i just feel like I'd be riding the car a lot harder, thats why i dont.

Normal driving is about 3k-3.5k RPMs. Anything above that and the car starts to pull pretty hard so isnt too good for city driving smile.gif
