When I first start an engine I run it just long enough to set the timing and then I point it down the runway, throttle it up to 6500 rpm and takeoff, the second takeoff is usually off water at 7000 rpm and with nitrous.

Hey, I could be flying by noon tomorrow :-)   
 
Thanks for the info.  I know that Leon feels it's very useful to run-in race engines in a street driven RX-7, so I'm sure there's some value in it.  I'll do what I can, but the plane's gonna fly by at least Sunday, if for no other reason than to clean out that Cherokee 140 feel that I got today on my BFR.  Yuck, just violated my senses :-)
 
Rusty (very soon to be re-flying)
