I had to drive a race car from Canberra to Melbourne for the Sanddown 500
after the motor had been rebuilt
(the guy that owned the car was a motor dealer so we put his trade plates and some road tyres on it)
When i picked the car up the mechanic to me to continually load the engine
ie to lug up hills at 40 kph in fourth gear and to take it to 4500rpm
in every gear to run it in
A bit like your bloke says
