This, Your talking apples and oranges.
More RPMs do equal more speed btw, do you want the formula? The only formula you need to look at is the powerband of the cam if the cam loses hp at 5250 rpm how will making it turn more rpm's make more hp? Look at the dyno sheets people post you will see once it hits the max rpm for the cam the hp goes away.
Look at the powerband of the cam for the viper you will see once it gets to a cartain rpm the hp and torque goes away.
No it isn't a crazy idea but in order to get a real benifit from it you would have to build a new motor, since the rods, pistons, wrist pins and an array of other moving parts weigh to much to get to a high rpm like 7,500 without exploding. you would have to go with a steel crank, titanium rods tooled steel wrist pins and about $40K worth of other parts.
I gave you an honest answer and you come up with with a F1 answer that is beyond common sence.
The fumes from the zano have gone to your head.
