Ummm... 5th to 4th at redline? if you're at redline in 5th gear you're probably going around ~120 mph. And at a fairly slow rate of acceleration at that point how'd you miss shift? I mean, "gunning it" in a celica gts in 5th gear is no spectacle...

Anyways, send that thing to a mechanic, and please don't fck around with others peoples cars, or with other people in your car, or with other people anywhere near your car PERIOD.
