Where is this "driving aggressively"?? No tire chirp. No powershifts. No drifting. I honestly don't see much wrong here. I see that the kid was speeding, but if you think about it, he needs to get the car up to highway speeds to ensure there is no tire wobble/balance issue. Should he have done that on the actually highway...yes. But this is not ABUSE of this car...if you think so, then you should drive a Prius. Or take the bus.
