All of this may have changed now, I haven't been paying attention to Thacker lately. I can see if you are racing for money to try and scam everything you can, but if it is just to test the car, why not push it as far as you can?
I don't think he's trying to scam anyone per se. I think he's just used to people underestimating the cars he drives and he gets enjoyment out of proving them wrong.

Take the 600+ rwhp Cobra he ran the other night. With a straight face the Cobra walked up to him and offered him the hit from a roll. Knowing Thackers reputation for driving, knowing his mods on his Camaro down to a tee (hell they are posted everywhere) and knowing exactly what his Camaro should do the Cobra guy still walked up and offered him the hit and then was so confident as to bet $100 on it. I am sure in Thackers mind even though he hates roll racing bells went off a big CHA CHING rang out as he started thinking of how he was going to spend the $100 the Cobra driver was basically giving him.
