I guess you're faced with a Ferris Bueller's Day Off scenario. I think if I had a Cobra, where every time I sat in the front seat the car whispered "I'm going to kill you" and I instructed the kids that they were NOT to ever touch it, and I didn't feel I could trust them to heed that order, then maybe I've got a bigger problem than a rev limiter should be expected to fix. I'd be certain that anyone that can figure out how to get the car out of the garage will figure out how to turn the switch for the limiter. It might be useful for a valet (and that is precisely what some valet keys do) but not much value otherwise.
