In fact the original question is kinda silly to begin with.. what did the OP do before this car?
this is a very entertaining thread in so many ways..

Did you read my post past what you quoted?
I was addressing the people who are ADAMANT that putting any load on the engine before it's up to temp will ruin the engine or that if you don't redline it every morning your rings won't be seated and you'll burn oil or the people who think that if you wait longer than 1,000 miles to change oil you're wearing out your engine.
The data DOES exist, Williams claims 27TB per F1 weekend

I'd be incredibly surprised if a multi-billion dollar auto manufacturer didn't have similar amounts of data.
But I guess this post was pointless since we agree :happy0180:
