Adam, you can't pass red line with the throttle - unfortunately you can pass it using the clutch and too low a gear. It was in this context that Porsche warns about the red line.

I have no problem hitting the rev limitter occaisonally. The worst thing that happens is that you react too slow and end up not getting full acceleration. So far I've proved the rev limitter works in Gears 1-5, hitting the rev limitter in gear 6 has proven difficult
