I don't mean to sound ignorant, I would just like to know? Thanks alot.  |
You will not be able to go above redline because the fuel cut-off will engage at redline. The redline is set so that you do not go above the threshhold of the engine that is safe. Driving to redline should be fine, driving at redline makes no sense for it is time to shift into higher gear. Hope this helps a lil, I am sure someone will explain better than I can. GL
