I was in 4th gear from T1 all the way to the top of the esses where I had to grab 5th. These tires are kind of tall though, on the shorter Nitto's I had to change to 5th 2/3rds of the way up.

Thats what i was doing. I was grabbing 5th onto of the hill right before the right hander to the back straight. i would just let off right before the esses and have it floored all the way though. Id be interested in seein what u did.
