If you watch the first video you'll see he's well into third gear by the end of the 1/8 mile. Check out the night time in car camera and you'll see he's about to bury the tach again in 3rd gear before he let's out. Only shift left would be OD. Add another 1/8th mile to it and you run out of gears. So unless you are building a really high revving 2.0L you'll be hitting your rev limit before you reach the traps. I've read where people look for taller tires, etc., to help keep the rpm down.
