Do yall agree that an engine that redlines at 12 is just stupid? how could you get any power at the speed?

it all depends on the type of engine. the s2000 redlines at right around 11k if i am not mistaken. most honda engines go up to at least 8k rpms. just about every street bike out there goes to 12k or better. it's all about the engine. and no it's not stupid, it's GREAT. if an engine can produce power at such RPMs, it's going to be quick...
