Im looking at a CGT and asked about any over revs. This is what they said about a downshift:

Car has done a total of 57 revolutions over 9k rpm’s…time equals 1.2 seconds.


1.2 seconds in an over reved downshift seems a little scary, but only 57 revs doesnt.

Anything I should worry about?

 

don't worry..you shoule be fine..

 

That math does not seem to add up. At 9000 rpms that is 150 revolutions per second. 57 revolutions would total about 0.38 seconds. So probably not a big deal. On the other hand what does a CGT motor rebuilt cost

 

$85000 with core return

$150000 new from factory

 

That's hysterical. I guess the old axiom is true. If I have to ask, I can't afford it
It's the only other supercar that I truly lust for. I now understand why I'll never have it.

 

a short type 2 over rev might not be a big deal for a CGT motor,but i could be a big deal for warranty work if you really cares.
