May as well be somewhere around 6500 rpm as most have made peak torque by then and start tailing off so no point ragging it unless your holding a long sweeping bend on track.

Or coming into a bend and about to go down the box.

6500 also, no point in ragging the **** off your engine it won't do it any favours!

To be honest I don't go over 6000rpm very often these days anyway

That is the point I change gear, as by the time you hear the beep at 6500rpm it has risen by 1000rpm

You lot must have bad reaction times if you manage to creep up another 1k in the rpm between hearing the beep and dipping the clutch
