When you race taking a car to redline is not needed and can actually hurt acceleration. The ideal shift is to shift according to your power curve. Ideally you will shift according to your torque curve in the lower gears thus when youc hange gear the drop in RPM will land you right before peak Torque according to your powerband (If you have a dyno sheet it makes it much much easier) This isnt always true but 80% of the time it makes for the most effective shift.

Just thought i would throw my 2 cents in

Well D, you know that with higher hp car, your peak occurs at a higher rpm and the only way to effectively fall into the correct area of the power curve is to take the vehicle to close to redline. This is especially true with vehicles that have turbos, centrifugal superchargers or nitrous.

Here's 2 more cents...now we got 4 in the pot.
