How safe is it to redline a car constantly before changing gears?

How safe is it to bash your head against a concrete wall by running into the wall at full speed every time you go for a walk?



The answer is the same.How safe is it to redline a car constantly before changing gears?
Well, the redline is there for a reason, but it still depends on the car.



Cars with roller-bearings instead of fixed bearings, like many Porsches, are less susceptible to damage at high revs, and indeed those cars suffer more from lugging than over-reving as the roller bearings are very good at reducing high speed internal friction but tend to torque in place a bit at very low rpms as there is less contact surface to hold them true.



Many people with drag racers will install roller bearing fitted engines precisely to enable them to go past the manufacturers suggested redline.



Also, Mazda's wankel (rotory) engines are exceptionally well-suited to high revs, well past the red-line with only infrequent failure.



If you are inclined to drive like that, keep your oil fresh, and your car in tune as missing at high revs can put enormous strain on the engine. Also, always allow the engine to warm up before you do this sort of thing, as warm oil has a much better flow capacity to lubricate than it does cold.How safe is it to redline a car constantly before changing gears?
Redline means ';danger,- big money going out the window';!!Engine rpms relate to centrifical force. the faster they go the more stress on parts, at some point you get the ';basic handgernade'; result! Consider fact that somewhere near top end,- parts internally are going almost the speed of sound! perhaps the exploding motor IS the ';sonic boom';!



Anyway every time you do this it shortens the life of car engine some, -- and like a cat it only has ';so many lives'; before it rolls over dead!



My reccomendation is don/t do it!
No. You should not redline it every time before you change gears, unless you're racing and can afford to rebuild your engine every so often.



As your engine goes faster, it puts out more power (and burns more gas). The redline is where it puts out it's maximum power.



Do you see everyone else doing this?
well that depends on how good of a driver you are now doesn't it. and i would probably start planning a rebuild and use performance parts with that kind of driving style they would hold up better than stock parts. also find your local dragstrip and try it out on test and tune night if they have one. it is safer for everyone else around you and you can't get a speeding ticket on a dragstrip.
It isn't, but it's all relative to how much money you have to buy a new engine. Redlines are the maximum engine speed you should go to.



I have used the 75% rule on all but a few occasions, especially when I was young and stupid.



Redline is 6000, take it 4,500. Your engine will last much longer that way.



But hey, it's you car.
the more you redline your car the more you risk on blowing your engine or transmission up . if i were you ... i would keep it about 500 rpm from red lining .like on my truck ... it redlines at about 8000 rpm ... i like screwing around and when im out and about tryin to see what it can do ... i keep it on about 7250 -7500 before i switch .but thats just me
It's as safe as leaving your debit card on an ATM with the code number on the back. It's not a matter of if , it's a matter of when you blow it up! That's why they didn't use SKY BLUE line. Back up or save up, todays engines are costly. If it's under warranty, they can usually tell it was over revved.
Say, B4shock, your have your answer already.



Your ID with your pic. struck me as saying ';Me be for a shock!'; Well ol' pal, keep on doing your 'redlining' fun, and your transmission %26amp; engine will oblige you with a *BAD* repair shock.
Not safe at all. Not to mention, Thats NOT how to get the most tourqe.



thats the worst way.



If you keep it up, you'll be rebuilding your engine in a couple months.
Um... I didn't think it was ever good. But I'm just a girl so what the hell would I know
