Hell I had it at the dragstrip 3 days after I got it. I did purchase the 100k bumper to bumper though. I say let it break and I'll take my free rental car to the strip too!:D

Since the break in period just said to vary the speed for the first 1000 miles, I did exactly that. I varied it from 0 to 110 to 20 to 100 to 30 to 90, etc. :D Pound it and lets see you caulk up a win. :THUMBSUP:

On the way home from the Dealership I got into a race with a 94 to 96 Camaro with exhaust and who-knows what, Automatic. He had me by a head until 40 and then I walked him HARD! Must of pulled 4 to 6 legnths from 40 to 60.:D

If his mods were done right and he knows how to drive, it could be a close race. Too close to call. If the mods are not done correctly or he does not know how to drive a stick, you will walk him when you hit 3rd above 4K. Let us know how it goes. :HOPPY:

Just remember to do the most important thing: Out drive him! He can beat you if he's the better driver, but car for car I believe it's advantage: Mach1.
