Not even paid off and hitting it with nitrous. BANG!!!!!

1. Don't beat on your transportation!

2. Never race a payment.

3. Hide any motorsport you do on a warranty from the warranty people. (Never sign the car in as "2020 Evo XX", use a title like "SpeedyOne" to avoid Google searches of club race results)

4. If it all goes wrong, don't tell a word of a lie to the insurance company. You can leave stuff out, but if they catch you in a lie, you are screwn.

5. Never brag about shady shit (like street racing) on the internet.

Never attend an autocross event in your brand new corvette that the dealership head mechanic is at, break the front spindle at said event, and take it in as warranty on monday.

You need a friend in the service bays! A very iconoclastic friend of mine bought a new Corvette, fully intending to have it done up by the top Vette tuner of the day (Baker), and generally race the hell out of it. The salesman is glad-handing him around the dealership, and introduces (unbeknowst) him to his old friend - the Service Manager. Somehow, they avoid bursting into laughter in the presence of the salesman. Service Guy catches him aside, and says "I''ll fix any F'n thing you want - blow up the motor, new wheel bearings every spring, I don't care - you can't be worse than the "consumers"! Just don't me chase rattles, and we're even!"
