It's awesome of you to have tried this - it definitely helps put things into perspective
Yup, I was probably around 3900 RPM in 4th gear cruising steadily. I made a slightly slower than normal shift (not excessively slow but deliberate) and it kicked up probably 500-600 revs to 4500 RPM before dropping to around 3500 RPM as I let the clutch out in 5th. I did not come anywhere near 3rd gear during the shift, and if I had SRM would have kicked up to 5K RPMs at that speed.

I also had no luck faking SRM out by hitting a gate - it was either all or nothing in terms of SRM revving up no matter what gear I tried (although it's kinda tough to downshift into 6th in the MT lol).
