Yeah but you have to think of it this way, the governor is there to cut you off in case you accidentally over-rev the engine. So you don't blow it up. It does not reduce the stress on your engine until that point. It just prevents the over stress. Once you've stressed it out enough, you fall into the heap you are in now.
