the engine is made that way for a reason, the redline is set at 7000 so dont go into that area, thats why its redline. its built with the intention of you going up to 7000. when racing you should be revving to about 7200 in second, third and fourth gear and to about 6000 in first. if youve lost to a honda before and were only revving to 5500, thats why you lost http://www.geocities.com/blue2gnt
