When he will shifts does matter you are correct. Like you don't want to have to shift right before the end of the 1/4. Or in a 0-60 or 60-130 depending on what #s you care about or if you care at all. If you are trying for the platform record than the exact gearing matters more because you are going to slow down during the gear change and lose boost(potentially) unless you can do no lift shifts.
60-130 I think is more popular now than 0-60 as it is so traction related. Especially with higher HP cars.
