FC RPM Bug?

[TakumiFuji01]

Okay, today I bought a Mazda RX-7 FC3S(Premium One) and when I was testing it out, the interior RPM Redline hit 4,000 RPM instead of hitting approx 7,000/8,000

Just to clarify, when you say FC, you mean a second generation RX-7, not a "Ferrari California" or something like that, right?

No RX-7 has had a redline as low as 6000 RPM, IIRC. I've driven 1st and 2nd gens, and I owned a 3rd gen.

Still, if the game has it wrong, I wouldn't call it a bug so much as an inaccuracy...

Hmmm I see, thanks!

hmm i c wellthx

Let me just fix that for you..

'Hmm... I see, well thanks.'

Oh! That was so hard.

On topic:
I own a FC3S in game and I haven't noticed this.. mostly because I don't look at the gauges much, I listen to the engine.

The RPM gauge on the HUD is correct, the one in the car maxes out at around 4000rpms or so. It's a bug.

 

[TakumiFuji01]

Yeah, I noticed. I hope they fixed this.

Ah, a bug I'd never know about, since I don't use the in-cockpit view...

Seems like the redline glitch was at 4k RPM
