Yeah just wind it out.  I've been pushing my coupe further and further and
it just seems to love it.  I have a local on ramp I can pretty much just let
it rip in second, 6250ish so far, that's about 55-60 I think.  I dunno
though, racing is for tracks _or_ empty roads.  I have to be very conscious
of any stress my driving style can impose on others just trying to get to
work or whatever.  Plus casual road racers might have been drinking, or have
a wreck, or shoot you if you really emasculate them....
