I'm always interested in ways to get more out of steel. I am having a hard time understanding what you are hoping to accomplish.

Little or no self control. I fear he will burn himself out, or get into some real trouble, or both. Sad to witness.

Over the years ive known a couple people like that. Proclaiming confidence that they knew more than others including/especially their teachers. Usually they just ended up demonstrating their ignorance, and never fared well. Like i said, sad.
 
There is a photo of a racing Subaru as the backdrop of his profile. That tells me all I need to know. 🤣
