If it's anything like the sunfire (Which I bannged the needle off 171 KPH ) then no, nothing will go bad, it just cuts off the fuel supply for a second.

Like they said, there should be no problems as long as you don't do it all the time. It does tend to happen once in awhile. I've done it also, she just pulls so hard..lol

No damage will be caused...it's there to keep you from over revving past an unsafe zone.
