yeah i've never heard of anything like that either.
best advice for break-in: just drive - it's a car, not an egg - but don't drive like an idiot. you can get on it OCCASIONALLY, but don't redline it and make sure the car's warmed up properly. don't slam on the brakes. avoid cruise control or extended driving at constant revs.
really, it's just like exercising. if you haven't worked out in a while, you can't just go maxing out on the bench or running 10 miles - you gotta ease into it over a couple weeks. and you gotta warm up first, you're not gonna go out and run wind sprints without jogging and stretching beforehand.
