When I was a kid the guy across the street always had IH Scouts as he "worked" at the IH truck plant in town and I guess he got some break on them. In the winter, even when it was like -20F he would go out in the morning and start the thing, then floor it immediately, and stick his window scraper on the pedal to hold it down while he went in for his coffee and it warmed up. My dad would always be amazed the things did not blow up from the abuse.

There used to be a kid across the street with an RX7 that thought he could 
"fix" things by sitting in the street and revving the engine. I always thought 
it would be fun to challenge him to start the car and hold his foot to the floor as long 
as he dared, his RX7 against my 240D...
