you have to remember that although the coolant/water temp is at normal operating conditions, the engine oil takes a longer time to warm up. you also have to consider the time it takes for the entire drivetrain to warm up (from tranny to rear differential and everything in between).

took the words right out of my mouth, cannot stress this enough. Just because the second you hit three bars the ecu will let you vtec, DOES NOT mean the oil is properly warm. You should be glad it was not letting you redline when cold.
its your car, do whatever you want but don't come back here and complain about it.

A lot of people have wondered why Honda did not make a better limiter. I.E-- instead of not letting you go over 6-7k rpms until you get three bars, make it to where you cannot go over 6-7k until 3 bars and a certain amount of drivetime. However, I think people should exhibit better common sense not to rev the heck out of a car that isnt fully warm.
