For most other cars, I stand by my claim. It's a function of gearing and the torque delivery, but I think it's much more common that optimal wheel tq is achieved by shifting most gears before peak hp.
My experience in the M3 has been that the lower gears feel sluggish at high revs, which is why I just assumed that you should also shift it before peak hp.

If you want optimal shift points just be the passenger and watch the tach while the driver uses the launch control mode.
