Personally, I don't feel it's a good idea to "hit the rev limiter".
Why not?
Because:
* it increases wear on the engine to spin it up that fast
* the engine has already produced its top HP and torque
* when you hit the rev limiter, the fuel is shut off to the engine and it stops (or slows down) for a moment.
* so, if the engine stops for a moment, you have just lost the race against the soccer mom in the mini-van
* or, if your in a tight curve, you just lost the forward thrust of the drive wheels
That's my take -
