yes if you have the power to get there, that is what the gearing will allow

true i understand now where you were going with that. But the person will just get confused wouldnt they, because they were asking in real life terms at what speed he should be shifting on a stock car.

Read what is in bold, you can hear when a car needs to be shifted in normal everyday driving. I gave what needed to be shifted at as far as a max for if he was racing or doing some spirited runs.
