Anyone know how much typical car engines can take? How much throttle and how close to redline can you get on a regular basis without affecting engine and part life?
Bumping.

Blobby...That V6 is made to sing! Give it the beans and let it rev up near redline! I'm not saying do it ALL the time, but you can do it often and it will be fine. By only allowing yourself to go up to 4K you are only beginning to crack the potential of your car.

It's a Camaro. Let it play from time to time.

As for handling...every Camaro handles well but the V6 convertible is probably the worst handling one in the bunch.
