9000 RPM redline?
I was looking at the RX-8 RPM gauge, and the redline started at 8500 RPM. I thought this thing redlined at 9000?
I did notice though that from 8500-9000 that the Red color is of a lighter shade, and from 9000-10000 rpm its a darker Red. Any significance as to why that is?
Thanks!

...i thought the chime started at 8500 (hence the light red) and redline is at 9000, with fuel cut at 9250 or 9500... something like that (then again, i don't own this car).
