I have since found that I can shift gears, but now knowing the 4100 RPM area, I might give it more tries. The tranny won't be damaged if you shift at the right points.

As I said before I really don't watch the speed or RPM gauge, I listen to the sound of the engine. But tomorrow on the way home from work, I'll try to watch the speed and RPM while keeping an eye on the road. I'll do the best I can. Til tomorrow, goodnight.
