Love the Graph---this is what I work with so I can trade off my variables as to gearing and tire size----I can only get away with such a wide split low to direct because I run larger eng. class
I run a PG/GV set up as a 3 speed low/direct/ OD
The first column is RPM 2nd TQ from dyno
3rd & 4th 1st speed and TE calculation (TQ x FDR)
5th & 6th 1st/od speed and TE
7th & 8th Direct speed and TE
9th & 10 OD speed and TE
I didn't put the lower RPMs on this copy---to see how I use I shift at 8000 low falls all the way back to around 4300 but I am going slow enough if pulls ok . It really starts to pull at 4700 and is full on above 4950. the reason I love this set up so much look at the final shift at 256 mph into OD It falls back to 6250 which is above peak TQ of 5875 and pulls right on up to and a little past peak HP. With the new car I may need new components as I need to move my HP UP the RPM range. ymmv `
