Come on everyone.... enough is enough.
Mistakes were made we all agree . Apologies have been
dispersed where they were truly due. (And only where due.)
But it's plain and simple.... YOU EITHER PUT UP.... OR SHUT UP!

It seems to me that no one should be coerced into "proving" their car on a
track when that may not be an area they don't feel comfortable with. This
sounds more like something out of the "macho* drag racing 50s" with the
car's pink slip at stake. If it were my car would I do it? Probably not
unless someone put up at least a $10,000 retainer to cover any possible
damage to the car or engine (I'm insured). That seems only fair. And just
because a car may be well prepared that doesn't necessarily mean it will go
fast, that depends on the driver.
*Daffy Definitions:
MACHO - Spanish word meaning "big brawny male who loves other big brawny
males".
