and upshift.

I never watch the light when I'm hammering it so I don't know
whether it goes on at the rev limit - too many other things to
pay attention to !
Now I just learned why I get such bad gas milage! I'm not paying attention to the General's advice about how to drive my Z! No chit, I didn't ever notice it telling me how to save gas! Oh well no one ever said I was the sharpest knife in the rack!

One thing though.........my secondaries should be really clean! I guess ya can't have everything, hugh?
