over rev on a downshift? Don't know if that's possible on a DCT, just guessing.

If you don't shift up it will bog down and downshifts won't be allowed.
So whatever RPM it's limited at it will go no further ... which means that pic is wankworthy.

Some track mode where it shifts higher RPM?

Is that the original mule car which was a Stingray with the LT6 in it? String wheel looks Stingray and we're they just testing things?

In one of the ride-along clips that are going around, they show the tach as the demo driver is blipping the gas in neutral. Momentarily, the tach pegs at 9K when he revs it hard in neutral.

That was from and Eddie X video when he went for a ride in both the Z06 and the Z07, they were going under an overpass and the engineer pulled both paddles and free revved the engine. With no load it's easy to over rev the engine, they must have a lot of confidence in that set up as they have been free revving it a lot from what I've seen.

Love that sound!! Those revs in idle were/are addictive!
It’s cool to start seeing pre-launch videos like these popping up.
Thanks for sharing!
