Not exactly.  I have never seen or used a shift light, but doesn't it
just light up at the optimal point to shift to the next gear?  No, this
would be used for when I am just cruising at 45 and the IROC-Z next to
me wants to play.  I would look at the display, and it tells me that I
need to hit 2nd or 3rd or whatever, and off I go.  Make sense?
