Even if the driver lets the revs go up when hitting the clutch, shouldn't the rev limiter still stop you around 7.5? With a drive-by-wire throttle, it's not like the rev limiter could ever fail or be confused. Ultimately it's always in control.

If I recall correctly, I have seen some dyno graphs showing up to 7,800 rpms being reached. I'm not exactly sure if that's accurate or not...?
