Default Anyone gone into the red?

The other night I was getting onto a highway and passed a minivan and had it winding up ...and I loved the sound so i kept going. All of a sudden....It kinda stops and it pulled me really hard. I look down and I was midway in the red. Maybe it was the revlimiter kicking in (shut off throttle but only about to 16000 and was bouncing me back.) Maybe it was a huge amount of power that I am not used to. Anyone ever get that?

yeah, any time i drag race and forget to shift at the right time. its a bummer to be going against someone, and that rev limiter makes you lose a round.
