[QUOTE="BrunDog, post: 1456, member: 173"] I think the Motoman is a baaaaaad idea. The general consensus from [I]engineers[/I], you know, the people who design these things, is that the proper method is to load an engine to around 75%, while ensuring that ring temperature is held in check. As such, loading the engine for an extended period of time or accelerating through the gears from 1k to redline each time will surely load it, but will also raise ring temperature to dangerously high levels. This will ensure a shortened ring life as they become annealed. The key is short bursts (say, within one gear), from about 2500 to 5000 rpm, then coast a bit with some engine braking, then repeat. Anyway, MHO. -BD [/QUOTE]
