I foresee the day of solenoid actuated valves. When that happens, 8-10K RPM will be no issue. We may start to see this in the next 5 to 10 years.
The days of the camshaft may be coming to a close.

Please god limit this to american cars only. I can't stand the idea of ricers running around with their cars in first gear at 10,000rpm.
Oh. My. God.
