I know a guy who used to rent cars and bring them to the track. He would have to scrape off the numbers before he brought them back.

are you trying to tell me, drag racing the car biweekly, driving to mads 1000 miles, road course racing the car for two days (on boost whole time), doing burnouts, brakestands, top speed 150+ mph runs on the highway, and having me behind the wheel will decrease engine life no way. in the three months i had the car running. i ABUSED IT. for a $500 car did extremely well running cosistent 13 second runs
