if you listen that kid gets paid to blow it, it's like a quality control program, they want an engine that will handle occasional jumps past redline and whatnot, because replacing those engines for their customers is rather expensive so testing and assuring top notch quality originally is much easier then tossing new engines in every ferrari someone buys.

I dont even want to know how a new engine costs on those things. I have seen the prices. 30k just for the F1 gearbox. Thats crazy!!!
