I have read on a BMW bulletin board similar to this board that BMW computers can record engine speed for warranty purposes. There have been some who had their engine warranty voided because of over reving their engines.

I think it was the tv show Primetime that did a story about some computers on GM cars have been used against drivers under certain conditions ie. multiple deaths, accidents with deaths where speed may have been the cause. This was a year or two ago.
