Remeber that i run road courses so Balls tot he walls top rpm power doesnt mean as much to me as a balance between mid and upper.

Now we have 6 cents. if we keep going we can buy a can of pop.
Well with road racing, most of the emphasis is on mid-range and having a broad power band is for the best. However, you still need a decent bit of top end and if you have your powerband set-up properly(mid to top end), shifting at near redline will keep you in the power band. We can go on and on, but I am sure that we are boring all of these other guys D.
