How often do you redline?

I redline once I'm @ 3 bars( AP 1 ) and I'm entering an on ramp. It's just natural. Rowing through the 1st 2 gears at 8800 always puts a smile on my face.
If I'm driving around town I usually stay under 6500k, too much traffic.

I used to redline often before I went turbo. Now I get crazy fast way before redline so there is no need to take it up there. I hit VTEC everyday because my tuner lowered it to around 4300 RPM .

Usually only have space to on on ramps or on the highway. Get's going too fast too quickly around town to do really do more than a quick punch of the gas.
On ramps I like to open it up a bit as often as I can.

I'd spend most of my time in vtec if it was that low, and by most of my time I mean cruising on the freeway

when its really cold outside and i just start the car up, i like to pin it on the rev limiter until i get 3 bars. just seems to save time.

when i dyno'd my car (ap1) power actually started dropping off at about 8600-8700rpms so i decided redline was no longer needed lol. i've never hit the limiter though. used to probably once a week. hit vtec several times a day though
