My engine issue

I dont know what you are talking about anymore really. I thought we were talking about the purpose of keeping a car in a lower gear longer, spinning the engine

I dont know what you are talking about anymore really. I thought we were talking about the purpose of keeping a car in a lower gear longer, spinning the engine faster than peak power. This purpose to it is because torque multiplication in a lower gear will generate greater acceleration than higher power in a higher gear. The greater the difference in gear ratios between the shift, the more reason you have to stay in a lower gear past peak power.
