you know ricers are cocky because they do have the fastest cars, when you don't race anyone and don't have any numbers to say your not then who can say your wrong lol
Ever notice they are always shifting at high rpm, when just regularly driving.
If they shift at any other RPM they may as well get out and push it. It would go faster.
All of the Vtec cars and imports with high redlines don't make much power until they are upwards of 5K or more. Heck, I think the last Celica the complaint was that if you're not pushing 6K, don't expect to go anywhere fast (it drove like a Geo Metro until you hit close to redline)
Although some German cars tend to have a pretty flat power band, something like 2.5K and up they're torque is 80-100% available.
