Break in?
I have a new L and was wondering if I should have some type of break in period before heading off to the track?

Good luck and I'll keep an eye out for you. I'm in a Red 01 down in Southgate.

mine rolled over 1,000 miles when i was pulling in the gate at the local strip. I think a few WOT runs are necasssary for proper break in but no to many.
