It'd be better to wait probably but I don't think you'll be running it hard enough to really hurt it a lot.

Once you've run it for a couple thousand miles, it will be broken in and loosen up some and you'll probably see more power out of it than what you'll get now.

Technically you shouldn't because your not out of the break-in period yet.

But its your car, so you can also do what you want.

That is generally the case. I took my Z to the drags when it had 500 miles on it. I have done this several times with cars and never had an engine problem.
They seem to run stronger if you whip them a bit in the beginning. That's just my experience, but putting 1000 miles on it is the safest way to go.
