3 reasons
#1 Know your car. Learn where it shifts and how it handles. Listen to the motor,don't rely on your guages only. Hear it and feel it.
#2 Bolt ons....just slapping on a bunch of parts won't make it fast. People don't always look at the big picture. Some parts are for HP some are for TQ. And sometimes they don't necessarily work together. Plan it out.
#3 Some people are out of touch with reality,they think they have a hell of alot more than they really do(ricers).
P.S. Squirrel, just curious....what are your times and mods? just curious. not trying to start any crap.
