ok, that was harsh, i've just been wanting to use that smiley and you left the door wide open... i'm just kidding, but seriously you should read the manual so you know how to take care of it.
take it easy and vary the driving speeds until 300 miles, with occasional 4th & 5th gear wot (wide open throttle) runs (NOT in the lower gears!).

 

i Prefer a slim jim or if very desperate a brick

 

Reading the manual is a MUST! There's lots of info in there like what type of oil to use, shifting points, etc. It's not a book you want to ignore....

 

Agree!!
Hey, Barney, luckly you beat me using the RTFM icon... that was 2 easy...

 

yeah, i couldn't help it. it was too easy[sm=icon_flaming.gif]

 

i love that icon!!!

i babied my car a little more than the book said for the break in. i took it easy on her for the first 500 miles, then got on her sone, but still was fairly nice to her until about 1k. then i went to the track

 

Whats ya best time? I havent yet had the chance to go the the track. But, i had plenty of opportunity on the worlds fastes highway, though[sm=guilty.gif][sm=icon_rock.gif][sm=icon_sneaky.gif]. We suppose to hit a track near Bamburg during the 1st week of Sept, but i will be on an FTX....[sm=imsmilin.gif][sm=icon_flaming.gif].

13.8@101, with exhaust and cai.

i haven't been to the track in quite a while, i'm hoping to go in the next few weeks. my goal for my next trip to the track is a 13.1 on street tires. i think i can do it, just gotta stay positive
