Default Rev limiter

This question just popped into my head. I was at the track attempting some quarter-mile times. The temperature was below 40 so the car wasn't hooking too well. I know my RPMs were not proportionate to the actual speed of my car because of the excessive wheelspin. I even felt when I believe to be the rev limiter are kick in. When that happened I was not paying attention to my tachometer. Does anyone know what the Rev limiter is set at on a LS3 motor? By the way my times were absolutely horrible. I'm blaming the cold road surface

I'm pretty sure it is set for the redline, meaning 6,500 rpms, unless changed by a tuner previously.
