You mean the "Gan-gan-gan-gan" of the engine at 8.500 or something?
All the time, especially on weelies ;)
It is the ignition which doesn't let the engine run over 8.500. You can
make the @ run on as muchas 1.200 as I hear (guys on the USA), but
problems with the design will cause the engine to self destruct preety
soon, unless you go to great lengths in changing engine components in
order to prevent it.
Don't forget, the piston runs at 19.2m/sec in 8.000 rpms.
