never go WOT before 3k RPMs.
and just play with the gears. cause it all depends on your power. 45 is like end or 2nd early 3rd. so i dont like it. try 35/40 and it will good 2nd.

40mph in 2nd gear ( pointless for most of us)
60mph in 3rd gear ( still pointless for a lot of us)

but not all of us. so for us slower guys. about 40mph @3krpm 2nd gear works best. all wheel drive cars 100mph rolls

Cool or not, its the truth. If I was really concerned though, I'd go out on the slicks and skinnies and hook in third.

On Stock I find if you're not pulling from 3800 ur not gona pull for shh....

Yes Someone Pulls up to you. . Drop it into 2nd and GO!

@ about 42mph is desired. So 40 isnt bad but below that the same power to jump good isn't there.

oh and I pull to 5800ish. Always before you hit redline ofcourse, never at. There is no power there, it just falls on its face.
