danlon, at 60 miles per hour you could easily have gone down to 4th gear and stayed in it to about 80 miles per hour then fifth. 5th gear is more like a cruise control, its not really used for racing at 60 miles per hour, im at like 1.5k rpm in fifth at 60. and at 3.8 rpm at 80 miles per hour in 4th.
