I was planning on doing this and sending a sample to Blackstone Labs which evaluates engine/diff/trans fluid samples and gives an analysis of the wear and tear. My buddy has done it for his racecar. Curious to see what they say.

Otherwise I would love to hear only 300-400 miles break in because I'm having withdrawals! Haha plus I want to make it to the next track event.
