The Toyota Celica is a peaky sports car. Most of its torque starts at about 4500 RPM. This means that all of its REAL acceleration comes out at the high RPMs of 4500 - 6000. However revving a regular car at such high RPMs is a bad idea if you want it to last, the Celica is ment for these high revs (THAT DOES NOT MEAN REDLINE THE CAR). Most sport cars need to be "kept in shape" with the occasional high revving. Although, automatic trannies work on friction, so I would suggest not doing this often unless you have a manual transmition. And although the Celica does get its acceleration "late in the game" it is more of a rally car than a dragster by all means. It is ment to take fast corners and down shift to pass. Not to mention it gets GREAT fuel Economy of about 34 miles per gallon! But I've gotten off course alittle here. My point is, The Celica is a sports car, that can be driven in a sporty manner. Dont be affraid of high RPMs. I believe that was the answer to your question... if you call that a question anyways (seems more like a statement)... unless you mean the car revs high WHILE you shift.... then I would suggest you take your foot off the acclerator when you depress the clutch... Just kidding.
