Cam break in

I bet all my neighbors think I'm an idiot or an A-hole just setting in the driveway reving my big ol' loud truck right now.

Re: Cam break in

Yeah, I have to break in the cam on my Z28 at about 6:45 every morning.

I hope the break-in goes well.

Ha! My neighbors cut me some slack that day because they were just happy for me that it was finally running!
