4200 RPM , Whoops

I was messing around in the gravel subdivision rd. this evening and had it in first gaer . the windows were up and the radio was on . i decided to gun it and by the time i started to back of of it i looked at the tach and it said 4200 rpm, whoops did not mean to do that . did not mess any thing up and i let off of it slowly as to bring the rpm down slowly . thank god its stock , if it was hopped up i might have messed up something . it was fun though, lol.

I've hit that high before. I doubt it doesn't hurt it unless it's extended periods i.e. burnout or so forth. my truck shifts down to 3rd for most burnouts anyway... so I'm good to go!

on the other hand i was not using any turbo, the truck was empty and just playing. with boost it could have been bad.
