Modafinil + Piracetam excitotoxicity?

I have heard many accounts of how mixing amphetamines (i.e. adderall) with piracetam is dangerous due to the probability of excitotoxicity, where NMDA receptors are overworked and essentially die.
My question is whether or not there is reason to believe that the same thing could happen between Modafinil (not a traditional stimulant) and Piracetam (or any racetam, for that matter). Modafinil partially has its effects through dopamine and norepinephrine, just like amphetamines, so I'm curious if there is the same risk involved.

I propose it because an ex of mine found Oxiracetam alone to improve her time (not score directly, but speed of answering) by about 5-10% within a week of starting the racetam. I found that fascinating.

I just did the first 5 questions of a practice LSAT test online from Princeton Review. I got all 5 correct and then decided I was procrastinating from my daily work. Haha
EDIT: Perhaps another form of testing would be more accurate and take less time.
