I just realized this.....ATTN: Snook

The Tachometer on top of everyone's screen is revving at redline....Not the greatest thing to do, but the fact that the tach is showing the car that's revving to nearly 8 grand in "park" is really not good!

I didn't notice that until my monitor overheated and blew this morning.

You'll be hearing from my lawyer.

Not that anyone on the board isn't smart enough to NOT try duplicating everything they see... :p

...but it won't rev to over 5000 RPM in park anyway.

I didn't try it. I gleaned it by reading the service manual.

I tried it when testing the sound of my CAI. It definitely doesn't go above 5k, even in neutral.

I goofed and did go into redline

... but not in park. I'm used to driving a stick and when doing some 0-60 runs (ok, racing)... I accidently pulled the SS stick back - like you would from 1st to 2nd - instead of forward to shift up. It revved to like 7000 or something before I realized I screwed up. I'm assuming this isn't the end of the world and I don't plan on doing it again, but some reassurance would be appreciated. Thanks

oh yeah, I'm pretty sure the gas cut out as a safety measure - or was that just my foot flying off the pedal?

I did?

Snook: Can you make the tachometer show some sort of data? Like how many people you have logged in, or traffic at any given time....just a thought.

Yet, that would be cool....

Oh, and I think it will look better if it's in SS mode....

lame

why is there a photoshopped pic of a tach at the top of this page that is going beyond redline and even beyond the rev limiter? Also the check battery and low oil pressure light is on.

who thinks this is lame?

besides the fact that this picture is obviously fake,
nobody really wants to do such a stupid thing in real life. It makes tl drivers look like a bunch of asses.

That is the type of pic i'd expect to see on a civic si page.

also, the gear is in 1; not even in sportshift mode.
just think. what if you saw some idiot on the road constantly bouncing off his rev limiter because he refuses to upshift?

Hey wait a sec. I was driving in SS tonight when I noticed that the "D5" light stayed on when you shift to SS. So here's the corrected picture:
