1. bryan h Says: i was so sleepy i hardly recognized the RPM goin above 7000 in 2nd gear... until i heard my CRV screams... im so freakin worried will she be alright?
2. Simon Says: You'll be fine! Car's have rev limiters for a reason and CRV's are super reliable. You'll only do real damage if you keep you foot planted for a long time (like 4-5 minutes.)
3. JBF Says: As long as your car redlines at or above 7,000 rpm (which it probably does since I am sure it has a rev-limiter to keep you from exceeding redline) then your engine is designed to do that so no worries.

PS

Please pay more attention when driving. You could kill somebody.
4. Jared Says: Just broke it in a little sooner, you now have a car with 100,000 miles on motor now. Honda makes very reliable engines, but like the other guy said, be careful, you could hurt more than your CRV.
