When I owned a Mustang, I was staying at a valet only hotel once and the valet took my car, started revving the engine, then took off pretty quickly. As he went around the corner, I guess thinking I wouldn't see or hear?, I could hear my engine screaming. I immediately went to the hotel manager and was then allowed to park myself up front of the hotel for the remainder of my stay. I did not see the valet after that event.

I try my best not to give anyone else the keys to my cars. When I do, I generally end up tipping more mature (older) people more simply because it is probably their actual profession and they are typically more pleasant/friendly to you and caring with your car. Younger ones are just there until something else better comes along and are generally speaking, less respectful of you or your vehicle.
Couldn't agree more about the young ones. Whenever I have stayed at a valet only hotel I have noticed the older generations taking care as they bring the car around.
