You beat me to it DCs2ooo. I just posted that in "Car Talk". Oh well, as long as the message is getting out there. I will NEVER have a Valet park ANY of my vehicles.

when i had the accord, i had a specific "valet" map that wouldnt let the car go into boost and wouldnt rev over 3k. granted i only valeted the car a handful of times, but it was nice having some piece of mind.

additionally, that video upsets me, but at the same time how many of you are really surprised by this?

Did it have a map preventing a valet from understeering into a structural building column? LOL - cause this guy did that several times in the video

Safest way to break the tires on the S actually is to crank the wheel and floor it s so they break loose naturally.

Though I suspect video douchebag did a monster burnout to start
