Default 5.7 Rev Limiter

I have 3000 miles on my R/T 6 Speed. I am normally very aware of the RPM when running through the gears under normal circumstances. I have never exceeded the redline. Today I was having fun on a wet parking lot messing around with donuts and drifting. On two occasions I hit the rev limiter. I didn't notice what RPM the limiter kicked in. I have two questions:

At what RPM does the rev limiter activate?

Will getting into the rev limiter from time to time cause any damage to the engine?

I was really suprised how quickly the engine was revving doing the drifting stuff. Not the way I normally drive but a ton of fun!

Thanks for the help

Fitz
