Impressive, but not normal. Are you flooring the car? Are the tires worn? There is something up, because that is not normal in an automatic tranny. You can do that to any manual with bad clutch techniques. :lol:

That's definitely not normal. I mean, that';s not even enough rpm's to spin cheap tires. Sound s the like the tranny may be slipping. Definitely get that checked out ASAP while you have the warranty.
