I HAVE GIVEN ALL MY CARS a beating. But they always got the best care in return. 2 way street.

But somethings I never do; like flat changing, 7000 RPM launches, or hectic burnouts where you try to gas everyone out of their homes in the cul-de-sac with oxidized rubber.
i would have the same definition of thrashing as you then. no hard launches or flat shifting.


otherwise the engine was designed and intended to be used in any part of the rpm range between idle and redline. unless it was a shit quality engine, I'm sure manufacturers don't build things that break when used and maintained as intended.
