Since there's no resistance due to the car being stationary. VTEC engines are designed under a safe limit to handle such high revs so it's not dumb, it's just like any other engine, make sure it's warmed up and avoid bouncing it off the rev limiter if it's not capable of doing so (like some stock cars). Just my original thoughts, I ain't no expert I'm sorry, what? I'm glad you agree on not being an expert. The problem when stationary and without any load is that it's just easier to over-rev since the revs can pick up a lot faster. If the car is equipped with a rev-limiter, it shouldn't strain anything unless the engine is already suffering from partially blocked oil passages or worn bits. (Or if you've tuned your car beyond the limits of it's internal components.) If there's no rev-limiter, then it's the same whether you do it on the highway or in your yard, cold revving and over-revving are always bad. I didn't really even fully understand the VTEC part so I'm not going into that. |
