The way out is through
Default My test lap in the East Bay.

So I got my test track all figured out for breaking in my new motor while I'm down here in the Bay...

43 miles round trip. I ran it three times tonight, take's about 50 minutes for a lap... not exactly the Nurburgring.

For those who know the Bay, here's the lap:

East/South on Camino Tassajara from my parent's house
East on 580 to Livermore
South/West on 84 to Sunol
North on 680 to Danville
East back on Camino Tassajara

So, that's 130 miles tonight, plus my trip to Sac and back yesterday, and my shorter trips around the Bay this week, and I'm about 650 miles into the break in. The nice thing is that I got the car at 54500 miles on the clock, so the motor's broken in at 55500.
