It's just that you've got a guy that's doing repeated 3 and 4th gear pulls down a public street. One of these days, he's either gonna crash a car, or get busted... it's not an "if", it's a "when". Is it really worth the savings over going to a shop to take that risk? For me, it's not even close; if the car's wrecked, it's gone. If you're busted by the cops, at 100+, it's jail time. How fast is a wrecked or impounded car? ...especially if the driver's in jail/hospital/morgue.
