First 1/4 mile outing. Very Humbling...

You're lucky you didn't turn your motor to scrap. A rev limiter can't help you when you go to the red line in 3rd, then hit 2nd instead of 4th.

You're lucky you didn't turn your motor to scrap. A rev limiter can't help you when you go to the red line in 3rd, then hit 2nd instead of 4th. This will force the engine way past the red line. Do your best to make sure you don't do it again. Just trying to save you from disaster.
