Not revving past 11,500rpm in 6th
 
Ok, so it only revs to 12k in 6th normally but that extra 500rpm is bugging me ;)

As far as I can rememebr it still bounces off the limiter in the other gears (although I didnt really test it properly, so maybe I'm wrong)

Only thing I can think of that happened between it revving to 12k and 11,500 is running out of petrol.

When it hits 11,500rpm in 6th it sort of hesitates a touch (quite "softly", not like hitting the limiter) back to 11k then starts all over again.

Its hitting the limiter.
The upper limit is 11.5k

Peak is around 9.2k and redline 10.5

Flux capacitor is knackered.

Change gearing if you need the speed the 500rpm in 6th will give you.

Gearing is perfect right now. I don't need the speed the extra 500 rpm gives but it's still bugging me!

11,500 rpm puts me around 135 ish. 12k is bang on 142.

Honestly I'm not being pedantic over 7mph it's just knowing it did it before and for some reason now it won't.

It's knowing where and when you can get away with it.
