1. That is not necessarily the case with Lee. Its not like he is living out of a cardboard box so he can buy more boost.
2. If he were living out of a cardboard box so he could buy more boost, there is nothing wrong with that. Gotta do what makes you happy.
3. Ultimately its about the enjoyment factor. Lee enjoys having a fast street ride. It doesn't necessarily mean its all an 'image thing'. And lets be real, a car is a very real part of our image, just some more so than others. And just because Lee hasn't gotten out on track as fast as you would have doesn't mean anything. Not everyone has the same priorities and same motivations.
