Yes, but a point you've so strongly defended yourself was...the Spec is all about mid-range torque. It would be much more effective to drop into 4th if 3rd gear really does end at 70mph(which I still don't think it does). You'd be wasting time with 2 shifts to gain a mere 5mph in a weaker part of your powerband.
