  1). You may be spinning your engine to 8000, but that is most =
certainly not
  the norm. Plus with a G cam you're spinning it way over the power =
peak, so
  the only reason to spin it that fast is holding a lower gear through a
  series of corners. I'd be curious what Shaun Meze would have to say =
about
  this kind of RPM in an autocross!

    It's not uncommon to run a car over it's power peak to keep from =
shifting if the time to shift up and back would consume more time than =
what running out of top power would cost.  It's what ever gives you the =
lowest times....
