That's funny.. I can't tell you how many things that I was supposed to break in with 500 miles lol let's start with my engine that guy probably 30 miles before I took it to the Dragstrip. Then there was my rear end that got probably 0 miles before it went to the dragstrip LOL I've never heard of breaking in a clutch but okay whatever the manufacturer says to cover their ***... By the time you get 500 miles on it it'll be out of warranty LOL..
