No tail wind or hill. Just don't understand how i ended up with such high rpm. Like i said, accelerated as if i was going to go into second, took it out of gear for a few seconds and then decided that i could still stick it into 1st to speed back up. Dont know what i was thinking. Was probably some bad crack the honda dealer gave me

1st to 1st over-rev? Not very likely. You most likely just hit the rev limiter.

take a look!

I'd say you did not overrev.....but hit the rev limiter. An overrev can show its ugly head many miles after an incident. Take a look at the thread I posted above.

That thread is why I don't buy used cars.

Well i'm sure i didn't put it into 2. 100%. But i know that when i put it back into gear the red bars where all the way full, i didn't see them blink because i took it right back out.

Still hoping for some suggestions for a shop to take it to down here....?!
If you can't find anyone closer bring your car up to Macon. Our chief mechanic knows how to spot stretched retainers (thanks to Billman). The inspection only takes a few minutes. PM me if you can't find a shop any closer to Valdosta.

FWIW I doubt you actually over reved, but if there is any doubt, an inspection will provide peace of mind.
