Default Hitting the rev limiter

Have you ever and how often have you hit the rev limiter? - Reason why I ask is because there was a honda civic with ground effects and mods that revved up on me so I punched it and didn't realize my rpms were so high (stupid me I had the radio on) and hit the rev limiter for like 2 secs. How bad can this be for my motor? BTW my car is a bone stock 250...
