So, next question. If you use a light, where do you set it? Assume you want the shift at 6000 (for the sake of argument), and the shift ACTUALLY happens 300 rpm after the lever is moved (auto only).
I used the tach in my nine second car, but it was a glide car, so the shift wasn't almost instantaneous off the line. My 11 sec 727 car needed the 1-2 shift quite a bit sooner....
As a spectator, at night at the drags, I see shift lights on for longer than I would like, in some cars.
