Default Halfway thru break-in!!!!!

I pulled in the driveway tonight after an after dinner ride and my S has exactly 300 miles on her. I'm going to R.I. for my folks wedding anniversary and to celebrate a belated father's day so I will be over 600 by Monday. On a side note now I definately know this car was made for me my laundry basket and travel bag fit in the trunk so I am able to take my dirty laundry home to my parents to wash!

where in RI are you going? Craaaans-ston? Too bad the weather is going to suck this weekend, the New England crowd could have made some sort of impromtu get together.

That is good. Only little bit farther and you are going to be able to do some VTECing.

Check your oil level when you get there.
It has a tendency to burn oil in the first 1000 miles a lot.

I had to put in about a half a quart at 1000. But this was also after a S2K meet and we were running the cars pretty hard.
