What RPM @ WOT for shifting

I am finally getting my tranny dialed in. I am wanting to know from all of you Auto guys at what RPM should I be shifting during WOT? I am seeing from a dead stop 2900 to 2nd then 3100 to 3rd. Seems to high. As I watch others at the track it seems they are getting throught thier gears quickley. I think I should be shifting sooner. Before I adjust the TV cable I would like to get some feed back. Think I need to shift sooner but whats my target RPM going to be?

Mine while running REVO, shifts at 3200 every time WOT. While running TNT, mine shifts at 3500 all the time WOT. But you have a 03 with a actual TV cable, while I have a 07 with the Electro controlled TV....

What does your TQ curve look like? Shifting to keep rpm's at or slightly above the TQ peak after the shift is where the your quickest times will be.
