So the other day while I was testing out the new tires, I got hung up trying to back up on an incline. I put her to the floor but it kept acting like it was governed/rev limit in reverse. Mine is a 2017 700-4, anyone else notice this?

Yes. It is. I forget the limit but it's at like 7 to 10 mph of wheel spin.
Sucks.

There is a way to override it by tricking the unit into thanking it is in drive while the sub trans is still in reverse.

Find link in a few.

Thanks @Hondasxs, I can live with it being limited, I was more concerned as to if it was supposed to do that. I guess I’ll just have to keep in mind not to get stuck in a position where I have to hammer down in reverse.
