Because they’re idiots. Next question.

Are you kidding? Car people can’t be with car people. I have 75% of the parking at my place and...cars are expensive. I can barely scrape together the money to fund my pursiuts.

Powerful jacks are for jumping chasms, destroyed bridges thing like that. Essential for beating the Car Acrobatic Team. It’s almost like you’ve never watched Speed Racer.
