It's only when folks take short-cuts and (for example) add in a quick-and-dirty 'dry-shot' that problems occur.
Yup yup. I'd be going with a wet shot and I would have a bottle warmer, nitrous progresser etc. It'll kick at 3K and stop at 6,000 (where I shift). The only thing I'm worried about is possible missing a shift and blowing my motor
