OK, I'm new to the camaro and just getting started. I picked up mine on Sept. 11 and drove her back to the house that was about 20 miles away, then took it out and drove it around to run some errands and broke some of the rules you explained not to do, such as, drove with the cruise on, downshifting, not going over 3000-3500 rpms. Now that I have read this, I need some help on breaking this thing in properly. I have a 1SS with the manual and now have 90 miles on it, What advice can you give me about breaking this thing in. Honestly speaking, I'm not good enough with the clutch to go jamming through the gears. But i'm doing what everyone else is doing, ENJOYING IT and lovin to see the head turns.
