Vic, I'd consider just going straight to the 15/33 gearing. The only real limiting factor here is if first gear is too high. You don't need to be in 6th on the freeway, just use 5th. With a super long 6th you will also be able to evaluate the improvements in aerodynamic slipperyness as it will become easier to pull higher and higher air speeds.
