For daily driving I shift between 2k-3k rpms and when racing I shift closer to 6k rpms.

RPM's are going to vary based on setup. I'd shift a stock LS1 at 5800-6000 RPM. I'd shift a heads/cam car closer to 7K RPM. It all depends on where your combination makes power.

lol he was talking about his R6. I would die to see an LS1 that could shift at 14,000 before going into meltdown.

But back on topic, i shift at around 6k when racing. Normal driving i shift when i feel i need to, listening to the car, which is usually around 2500.
