This may be a rumor, but I've read and heard of rental car companies monitoring the GPS in the vehicle for laps on the nurburgring. So you can get in trouble regardless of whether there is a reported incident or otherwise. I don't know if this is true or not. Regardless, a lowered car with slicks, racing harness and helmet is a much better car to drive.
