sonorliteman is on a distinguished road
I'm all about driving 'regularly' myself. Had an old race car driver tell me his method...he'd just grab the throttle blads and whoomahhhh! He even did it w/ my old Mustang's freshly rebuilt engine!

'If it breaks you want it to break now, not in the race' he'd say. I think allowing the engine to heat up a bit is good advice, but I tend to not baby it as some would. After all, I have to believe these engines are started and 'broken in' at least once at the factory before intalled...anyone know about this?
