This is why synchro revmatch is stupid. I knew that would blow an engine sooner or later

in this case, i never mis-shifted per say, but since the computer automatically over-revved for me, i realized my mistake before it was too late. |

all modern cars have rev limiters, however a rev limiter wont save you from a mis-shift. the limiter will only stop the engine from revving too high during acceleration...but if you downshift from say 5-2 at 60-70mph...you will likely land over the redline due to how gearing works..

Either way, this is scary. I've done it before. I've been driving manual cars for a long time now. I don't know if you've done engine or clutch damage. I think only time will tell. |
