1.8T in the red area

Hi, I’m stupidly at the traffic lights today, my 1.8T, so to speak in the stand for 1 – 2 sec, when trying to get started (but didn’t come from the spot) into the red area (around the 7000 rpm). Want to ask me: 1. In how far the 1.8T has a speed limit 2. Something harmful in case of unique occurrences. Hope here you can help me further. thank you eLiTe
