Default Anybody try used nascar oil lines?

I'm thinking of making my own turbo kit, and oil lines and coolant lines seem like such a PITA and their expensive, so you can buy used nascar oil and coolant lines of of e-bay for about 10$. I'm assuming they would change these lines every race. Here they are:

I was just wondering are they shot? Or are they still good for 50000 miles? What do you guys think?

Thanks
Jeff

I wouldn't pay money for used oil lines... I might use them but I definitely wouldn't pay for them.

P.S. The lines aren't the costly part, it's the drain flange and the block fitting. Each of them cost what the complete lines do.
