Default RE: Gear shift

ok i have a question about the shifting. i run my car in a small parking lot (about the size of a basketball court) when the car just about shifts into 2nd it is time to hit the brakes. i thought about makin the shift come sooner, but then the rpms are pretty low and by time it picks up enough speed i have to hit the brakes. if i was to loosen the screw for shifting to make the 2nd shift come later would that put more wear on the 1st gear and engine? basically it would be in 1st 80-90% of the time if i was to make the shift come later.
