I think it wouldn't work. Math and physics are not Americans' forte, and I think it would be too hard to explain to most people which gear is the correct gear to use. Getting a mass driver education program in itself would be difficult, nevermind having people understand it.
From what I've seen, people who drive manual tend to think that there is an optimum rpm range that you should always stay in, and won't shift up at low speeds, although my sample size is very small heh. But if you listen to the sports cars (which tend to be the only manual transmission cars rolling on the streets these days) rolling around town, often times their exhaust note indicates they're running at a pretty high rpm, so I think my observation is not far from the truth.
