I've had a mod motor with my wife's Mach since 03, but that car has never been driven hard at all. I seriously doubt it's ever seen 6k let alone 7krpm. haha.

All of my foxes were on the right side, my wife's Mach is on the right and my Explorer is also on the right. So it's habit to drive up to the pump on that side.
Steve this is because you never drive your car

Any who, for me since I'm on the stock tune the factory rev limiter is set at 7k so I try to shift right at 6850-6900rpms so I don't bounce off the limiter. If I see the gauge go red half the time I will screw the shift up since I don't have a lot of time before it bangs off the limiter so I try to do it right before.
