2-6? That never happens. You'd probably blow your engine before you did it. Not many people hitting 50 mph in 2nd gear.

Tell that to Porsche who thinks 85mph is a reasonable top end for 2nd gear. Even a Miata will hit ~60 in 2nd.

Given the low end for 6th is around 35mph, 2-6 is plenty doable without going anywhere near redline.

My Subaru WRX would beg to differ... 60 Mph in second gear, then shift to 6th to do highway traffic, just fine.
