Actually, the sequence usually went warm-up, 1st pull, check engine temp and if the engine temp was too high, rest for a few minutes while spraying water on the intercooler (from a water bottle, not the built in IC spray) with a fan strapped on it, then do the 2nd pull.

But the engine temp sometime wasn't very high after the 1st real pull, so the second on was done right away.
