Yes. Have hit rev limiter in all cars and don't see any reason why not.
7000 revs is nothing.
Their cut off point is very early and they have levt themselves 000s of revs in wiggle room.

EDIT: 1280 x 1024 did fix it. But I now have to adjust fonts and screen setting so these eye can read V's profundities now that I can see them!

I guess i'll try that.
Is there a proper manual mode in steptronic? I read in some threads here that you can upshift but the car will downshift for you...

yup i redline it....just remember to do scheduled maintenance. I over-revved once to 7000 rpm. But it didnt dounce of a limiter. I think it;'s my remap that my redline is raised,
