So I'm driving home from work in Miami to my townhouse in Fort Lauderdale, and this 95 GT pulls up to my bumper. I drop it to 4th, at 75 mph and scoot up to about 85. This idiot does it again, so I do it again. I change lanes to let him pass since he seems to be in a hurry. He pulls ahead of me by about three car lengths and on comes the hazard lights. I ignored them at first, but he kept slowing down and speeding up, typical ricer that happens to be driving a stang. So, I get fed up with it and pull up next to him.
Here's where my issue comes into play. I dropped her from 5th to 3rd at around 72, and took her up to about 85-90, drop to fourth and took it to about 5500 rpm's or a bit higher, then to fifth. I blew his doors off and could barely see him in my rear view when I looked down I was doing around 120-130 so I slowed WAYYYY down. Stupid of me to take it that far, but you guys know what adrenaline can do.
Anyway, it sounded like the car didn't like the 5th to 3rd shift. I bounced off the rev limiter. My question is, could I have hurt something? Since the computer is stock, the rev limiter is intact, so am I paranoid? The car runs fine, no SES light, and no wierd sounds emitting from the engine bay, but I don't run her that hard usually.
