[X(] Well, I guess that's one way to do it. Lol!!!! Generally speaking, you want to either idle the first couple tanks or put the buggy on the ground and "blip" the throttle while driving around in figure eights. After those first couple tanks, then you can start moving up in to the mid throttle region for another couple tanks. After that, it's time to start tuning it for running!

The reason for easing into the rpms is to give the internal parts a chance to loosen up and mate. If you just fire it up and go to full throttle, you risk the chance of blowing the engine right off the bat.
