best shift points in the 1/4

When running the 1/4 mile what are the best shift points, red line or is there a peak point before that? Also what gear should you be in at the end?

6000rpm shifts, and you should be in 5th at the end.

Well there are to many variables really, it depends on your mods. Stock the best point is around 7000. Add some mods including cams and its around 7500. The only way to know for sure is to view a dynograph and see where you start loosing power. Also to practice at the track with shifting points.
