I am running with manual gear shift and I guess the gear changes are over
reving the engine.
I know this will probably annoy the purist out there but what the hell I
want to enjoy the game.

I believe you would select a lower class wothout damage and change a file to
give you more laps. You should post this question at the apex.

Lift off the gas when you shift. The motor will last much longer.
Keep an eye on your water and oil temp. When they start to get a little
on the warm side, back off and don't wait so long to shift.

Here is a previous post answering your question:
Subject: Re: GPL Track / Lap Count
Date: 10 Jan 1999 00:00:00 GMT
Just open the "67season.ini" file in your "../gpl/seasons" folder and
edit the number of laps for each track. The various realims/damage
levles use different precentages of the total number of laps or the GP
distance.
If i remember right they are:
8% of GP distance for "novice races"
15% of GP distance for "int./pro *short*" races.
30% of GP distance for "int./pro *long*" races.
Like I said these race-lengths can be used in multiplayer races
aswell...
and the good thing is that *ONLY* the host need a modified
"67season.ini"
file.
In the IGPLC we've been using mod. race-lengths since November and that
has worked great! Check out http://home.c2i.net/thepaddock/IGPLC if you
need more examples of what i mean.. :)
