Things I learned from the latest video

The 11 minute video could easily have been 2 minutes
Insurance will pay for it
He takes no responsibility for it happening
He has "enormous emotional connection to the car" but it is almost brand new.


My thoughts -
He will have a huge bill when they give him a check for what the car was worth when it was totaled.
A $71k engine is crazy.
Based on this I would never consider doing something to this engine which could jeopardize the warranty as an engine failure could total the car.
I would never take this car to a track day as an engine failure could total the car and possibly neither the warranty or insurance would pay for it.
I would likely never buy a car that had this engine in it or I would get rid of it at the end of the warranty.
I would never follow this guys video's, they are painful to watch
If I were his insurance company I would tell him I wasn't thrilled with him recording our phone conversations and posting them on the internet. I wonder what the law would say about it.
