Good thing you're not old enough to worry about heart problems...although you might develop some nervous twitches and the tendency to hear non-existant sounds during the next race season.
This weekend I helped annual a friend's aircraft, and one of the cylinders tested for a compression leak, even though we had been making a decent 143mph in still air that morning...reground the exhaust valve that afternoon...flying back home (after removing and reinstalling a whole cylinder on a single-engine aircraft) we were listening for anything remotely resembling a hiccup (and staying close to the highway, I might add). Only post-annual problem was the failure of the landing gear hydraulic pump upon arrival yesterday --- but the emergency gear-release option worked. Crap!
