For any that were at the Indy track day this year, Can a 1.6 get around the entire track without needing 5th gear with that 7200RPM redline?
You shift into 5th on the front straight but not for long, I did not need to shift into 5th on the back straight, or need to but it was close, I started short shifting on the back to see what was faster.
I have some video i may post up a link.
There should be a little for everyone at Indy, draft, and tight corners in the infield. No second gear corners thank god.
