For me it's
1
>0-20 kmph
2
>20-35
3
>35-50
4
>50-70
5
>70+
In case of overtaking all of these numbers can be multiplied by about 1.7
Pic unrelated, I was surprised people drive so slow in such high gears

>25mph in 5th gear
What third world shithole is that graphic from?
>>
>>28808835
Depends on the speed limit.
If i am at a racetrack, as fast as possible.
On public roads, i drive on the cruise control, at the speed limit.
I use adaptive cruise, so it will speed match anyone in front of me, steer, brake etc
>>
>>28808835
1st is 0 to 20 (km/h)
2nd is 20 to 40
3rd is 40 to 60
4th is 60 to 90
5th is 90+
>>
I always shift late cuz I like angry engine noises
>>
I like to stretch 2nd gear to 50mph
>>
>>28808835
>1
0-15km/h
>2
15-30km/h
>3
30-50km/h
>4
50km/h basically
>5
60 and up

These are "cruising" speeds, if I gotta overtake or get up to speed I'll happily pull through the rev range (in 2nd it'll do 80+km/h banging off the limiter, I've tried)
>>
35 mph
57
83
119
149
160
dont have much use for 7th

isn't that for fuel economy? depending on the flow of traffic i'll try to keep it around 1500 rpm or so. but on the highway 100 kph in 5th would be around 2000 rpm.
in my 3 spd i can get up to 90 in 1st gear lel
>>
>>28808835
my driving instructor taught me that 3rd gear is good for 120-130kph if you're overtaking or accelerating on to a highway
>>
>>28808835
1st: 0km/h to 15km/h.
2nd: 15km/h to 30km/h.
3rd: 30km/h to 45km/h.
4th: 45km/h to 60km/h.
5th: 60km/h and above.
>>
>>28808835
Going full out?
1st 90ish km/h
2nd 120ish km/h
3rd ???
4th ???
Yeah 4 speeds kind of fucking suck but at least I'm not doing 4000rpm down the highway.

Cruising on the highway 50+ mph

This is when I'm just driving around without trying to accelerate hard or firmly. Pic related is top speed in each gear.
