Yes, at between 3/4 to 1 gallon (just like ezveedub said) the engine IS FULLY break in. From this point, the engine will be in highest performance. This superiority will last usually only 2 races. After that point, the engine's performance is going downward.

So, competitively speaking, it only last 5 races huh
