Is there any truth to what I have read in past posts that when you reach the 1250 breakin you notice a difference in the way the car preforms? I am closing in on 1250 and can't wait to really push the car, any one notice a difference?

Sure you notice a difference! Revving past 4500 rpms and flooring it gets you A LOT more power! That's why I think people say that. It's hard to be objective about it b/c of the enhanced rpm range and the ability to floor it that you can do post-breakin.
