Lol you really need to do the heat cycle break-in and ignore what the HPI book says about static break-ins. You should do figure 8's with a stop go stop go for about 5secs only at minimal revs - minimal, enough to make it go and thats it; for your first and second tank with a complete cool down between tanks and make sure the piston is at Bottom Dead Centre each time. After your first 2 tanks again do figure 8's with a stop go stop go method with an 8 sec with the same rev level for one tank. Then for your 4th tank, revo to med with 10 sec count with a stop go stop go method and do this for 2 tanks. On your second to last tank, do big circles with a 12sec count with med~high revs - still with stock run-in settings; with the same stop gp stop go. Also making sure the engine is completely cooled down between tanks. Then on your last tank, you should adjust the HS needle 1/4th turns in - lean it in; after each 12 sec high speed run until it has good sound, smoke and has good speed - dont lean it too much though...you can tell as it will sputter, get very hot and there will be very little smoke. The you need to do the LS needle with 1/4th turns. You should do this after each 12 sec high speed run untill the car has very crisp and clean take off without bogging down, stalling or sputtering. To check that its correct, pinch the line and kill the engine, the engine should stop within about 3~4 seconds and as its stops it should idle up a little and then stop. If not and it takes too long or does not idle up then you need to tune it more at 1/4th turns until it does.

After that your engine should be very well run in the proper way. Your engine need some stress to really bed the piston into the sleave and give it a good mesh...static break-in is very silly and I really hate it that HPI still prints that kind of bad advice.
