I believe one of Opel's strictly-for-racing-only cars reach 16,000 rpm. If I'm not mistaken, it's a 2.5L V6 turning out around 600HP

Well the S2000 has the highest redline for street legal production type engines.

For tuned engines it would be the Spoon civ. There are definatly more but those two come to mind other then F1 cars.

F1 cars rev from 14,000 to 17,500 depending on track, weather, altitude and many other variables

Formula 1 cars can rev to around 16-18k depending on engine and coniditons. I have been to a few presentations by engine companies and cart teams that are delving into the use of magnetically actuated valves (no camshafts). The engines have begun to outrun the limits of a conventional valvetrains.... it was amazing stuff....
