Default HELP WITH BRAKE-In

Ok i got the new ride... i been taking it kinda easy but the dealer didnt tell me diddly, i been shifting around 3k, sometimes i go to 4K by accident, But i hear from some people that there is a certain speed to keep it under.... i have not heard this but only about keeping the rpm's low till 1000 miles, i have 250 on it so far, and i am taking it rough, i mean i might Acelerate a bit, but its all in the good rpm range......

Help from fellow Z drivers.... Plz i need your help... Tips....

nah, nothing wrong. suppose to keep it under 4k rpm, but if you go over once in a while its not biggie. you need to vary the rpms so what your doing is fine. after 1200 miles, your good to go.
