there is a method
there is a method on ramps .. many methods
one method
when one turns in to the ramp just idle along , forgetting all behind, until all the sluggards in front of you are pretty much clear and gone [ this is a judgment when to to apply power, quite variable] ,
hesitation at ramp root
then power up to merge
lots depends on the entry to ramp speed traffic density et al
one needs to learn ones equipment and shift points , *i think* the advices is [pending link to methodology description] in the lower gears to run it up on to higher RPM's higher in the power band, then when in the big cog [ top gear]apply steady state FE application to top end.. i like to run out to 3200-4200 anyway.. but thats my motor..
a guess .. a speculation ..run 1st gear to max torque +10% shift [ moderate application].. 2nd to peak torque +10 repeat to TOP COG then apply steady state FE application to max.. cruise..
if one had an instantaneous FE calculator it would help .. however NA for my equipment .. i go by feel smell and sound based on 20K hours of pedal time
