What RPM shifts?

9000' ... need a parachute
0-60 is completely irrelevant and is not even measured when drag racing. Shifting at 7500 is absolutely wrong on the stock turbo. There is no rev matching when drag racing either.
i called this guy out at my work and after he asked me that question he told me with his 03 cobra he runs 9's with 500hp. right then i just stopped talking to him.
First gear you wanna shift around 7000 rpm right into 5300 rpm (rev match area), if you do it right, you won't feel it, second shift is important to go to 7500 rpm so you're above 60 (gives you a better 0 - 60mph time for those of you who care), 2nd to 3rd is my fastest shift actually, rev match again to around 5600, then take 4th all the way to the finish line.

I think you mean 60' (ft) not 60" (inch). I could pull a 1.6x 60 inch on my bicycle.
