He does bounce off the rev limiter a bit much but its really not that bad, You'd be surprised how much of a beating these cars can take.

It's there for a reason.

Since he does not shift up much, he would really benefit with a Different final drive.

4.77s and he'd run most of it in 3rd

Sitting on the limiter under power does zero to hurt the engine. . The dude does drive like an idiot though.

This. Bouncing off the limiter and shuffling your hands is overkill when you're just carving canyons,
