Default Re: Poll: Who has ever hit the rev limiter?

OK, I'll confess. I've never hit the limiter but not for lack of trying - it's for not knowing where it is! Anyone know what a typical DRM chip sets the limiter at?

I'd have to dig to find the dyno sheet from early in our ZR-1 adventure but I seem to recall power peaking maybe middle 6k's or so and I don't think we went to the limiter on those three runs.

I have to make the 1-2 shift by where I am on the course, not by rpm. And although it sometimes feels like it I never quite reach the top of 2nd gear (I need to go to the 3.54 rear, most I can do within class rules). For this car, the street is just for transport between events - and soon that will be by trailer.

Cheers,
- Jeff
