Yep. Although the rated redline usually has a significant safety factor built into it over is still over.
The fact that it hit 8300 alone really isn't a death sentence though. It is more how did it hit it? A miss shift that takes you from say 4,000 to 8,3000 in a split second hit with far more force than being near redline and just nudging it over.
The notes totally suck and are almost illegible but in the end they are enough to clinch the denial.
