This reminds me of a story that happened to me in my younger years.
My father was a auto spraypainter and one day a couple of guys brought in a classic Holden into the work shop and wanted it fully sprayed with custom stripping. When finished the guy's came back and picked up this beautiful car paid  cash and handed my old man two tickets to a show "The Hell Drivers" My dad and I went to the show and you can guess what happened. Out came the fully sprayed Holden did a couple of laps at full pace around the track and then hit a ramp and started rolling like a bowling ball. This jem was now totally fu#ked.
