There's nothing really that needs to be broken in. Your camber might not be perfect, so your tires won't line up with the driving surface (if you are useing pipe for tires). This will cause your car to drive a little funny the first run or two.

Other than that, I'm sure you're fine.

Belt or shaft?

If belt, you need to break-in the belts.

Read your manual.
