Default WS rev limiter

Does anyone know what RPM the furl cut triggers at in the WS Fiesta? Thanks.

6750 is my best estimate (in 2nd at about 90 km/h). It's quite noticeable - suddenly no more acceleration.

I think one of the manuals mentions it too.

6750rpm sounds about right. I tried it once the other day...
