Lugging the engine is very hard on it. Not something you want to do even if your "are too lazy" to shift. Being "on a racetrack" has nothing to do with it...
BTW - If you are "too lazy" to shift - buy an automatic :p That's why they make them.
Like Terry loves saying "If you want to lug, buy a John Deere"
