Headed to the track on thursday to lap my race car; i'm driving my new G there, and had given some thought to tacking my new G. the car only has a few hundred miles on it and don't really know what the protocol is for tracking, and/or breaking in a new Lambo.

 

anyone know what/if the break in procedure is?

Not much to contribute but since you've had no other replies... based on various searches I've arbitrarily decided to keep my G below 6k most of the time for the first 600 miles.

 

Only at 400 miles so far, but I'm not religious about the occasional spurt.

 

Seems to be no real consensus on this topic.

 

But my version of "common sense" would tell me not to put a car with less than 500 miles or so on a track, just like I wouldn't put a car with street tires with less than a couple of hundred miles on them on a track. But maybe that is just conservative me.

 

And, normally I would replace the brake fluid with a higher temp one but I have no clue what comes in the G to begin with...
