In a related story Mitsubishi would void the warranty on an Evo if the dr hit the rev limiter too many times- even if the redline rpm was never exceeded.

I see RB's reply. If Chevy claims it can do it ... well then they'd better cover it.

Owner is fortunate that GM stepped up and warrantied it.

the engine can't HELP but over-rev. That's just momentum at work there.

Hearing your motor grenade must be the worst sound you could ever hear.

And, I've had supercars over 100MPH on a track, before, so it's not that I'm a wimp about speed...

Dumb question, but has GM actually examined the car to cover it, or are they just taking the guys word for it that that is what happened?

I read he took the car to the friendly Camaro dealer and GM said they would put in a new motor under warranty. I didn't hear if they actually examined the car before they said that. If they didn't, then they might take it apart and find something when they actually figure out what really happened.

I prefer preserving my gas wastage for hard acceleration at lower speeds, rather than blasting through the air at speeds well north of 100 MPH.

Last year before I bought the Volvo, I tested an Infiniti Q50. Salesman saw I was being a bit calm and encouraged me to get it on it. Naturally I had to comply !

I do agree the twisties are more fun! Turns separate the men from the boys. Turns are what made me respect the 350Z when previously I didn't have much respect (I was in the Alltrack though; I want a rematch in my TTS).

BTW, the Q50 3.0L turbo is a rocket.

This APP, which monitors my driving time, driving speed, sudden braking, use of phone for incoming or outgoing calls during my trips, and time of day that I take each trip, is used by the insurance company to reduce my premium by as much as 8% in the form of cash-back to me - which is significant ($90.00 - $100.00). I get a discount for opting into the program as well. Initially, I felt a bit like "big brother watching my every driving move" but, interestingly enough, opting into this program has improved the way in which I drive every day.
I am not a speeder and I keep enough distance between me and the car(s) in front of me so I can safely stop without slamming on the brakes. I drive in the mornings and early afternoons and rarely drive in the evenings or nights which is a plus according to the insurance company. Prior to signing up for this program, I did frequently use Bluetooth for my phone calls while driving, however now I just let the phone ring unless the incoming phone call is from a contact that I need to speak with, which is very rare. I can always return calls if they leave a message.
As for my speed - I used to drive within 5 mph of the speed limit on the Turnpike and I-95, but now I make sure I do not exceed the speed limit. By observing the above more carefully, I can reduce my insurance by close to $200 per year, which is significant. Coupled with the $750 per year savings I am now receiving for my Condo insurance, that's a savings of $950 per year over my previous insurance for both Condo and Auto. Definitely a good decision to go with the changes in my insurance policies.
