Good examples of cry babies are Porsche owners. They are the biggest chumps in the auto enthusiast crowd. "omg i can't rev my engine past 3k rpm or it will explode" then months later, the engine dies of bore scoring or some dumb internet myth.

I love seeing when you do a PIWIS scan on a Porsche and it shows you all the times it hits the rev limiter or red line, the more I want it because you know its driven. 149,000km on my flat six and going. Too many redline and rev limiter hits on the Durametric scan. Suck it, Porsche weenies.

All the IMS crybabies put 1k on a year and never get their oil up to temp. Sorry for your luck.
