Drove another half mile and pulled over, left the car running and got out and examined. Determined smoke coming from under the hood, popped the hood and saw oil and immediately then shut it off... i wouldve known if there was a misfire lol.
Even if there was a misfire too small to notice (it can happen) that does not negate the fact that you did not exceed the maximum revs. To deny for an over rev at 7300 is ludicrous.
