Paul,
I don't know why you have such a burr under your saddle on this issue.
I never suggested you not drive the car hard. If you having fun and not endangering anyone else, hey , have a go at it. Track that baby day and night.
What I was simply saying is that driving your car at very high RPMs is not GOOD for the engine, it is BAD for the engine. There is simply no other way of stating it. All things being equal, not engine engineer is going to tell you otherwise I would be.
That doesn't mean you will have an engine failure or it will simply wear out.
I think you can simply go about your business and drive the car as you will. Also, for all I care, you can run 30K miles on peanut oil. It is all good.
I just won't follow your lead.
If you will allow me my way of driving and maintaining, I certainly will allow you yours.
