FYI: Hitting the rev limiter HURTS.. Not a slight loss of power but a drastic immediate one..

Uh, did you expect anything different? :-P

jasonm2 07-17-2000 09:07 PM

No, it worked just the way it should of.. Just didn't expect that big of a jolt..

jasonm2 07-17-2000 09:13 PM

But, I figured it would give me the AUDI BEEP.. Like when you hit the user set speed warning..

Actually know that I've searched the archives I'm wondering why it wasn't smoother..

Depends on how "hard" you hit it! Rapid acceleration to rev limiter will feel abrupt

Huh?
 
I was able to run at 7000RPM's down the back straight at an autocross for over one seceond at the rev limiter without losing any speed or bouncing off of it.

Wait till you hit it [limiter] coming out of turn trying to pass someone on a track...that sucks!
