I wasnt paying any attention to the speedo. Just making sure we dont see any cars around or deer! And it is your shift schedule, some speeds are alot better than others getting you in your power band.

sorry i still aint figured out how to tweek my shift points yet on my programer. Last ti,e i tryed to tweek it from 1st to 2nd sounded and felt like i had a manual! Just seems like when i wanna kick it down a gear it wont but when i switch lanes and dont mean to it gets up and goes. Dunno maybe i need to read more in the superchips thread.
