Any pinging is causing some damage. But so does WOT. Or shifting at the redline. Or a bunch of other things that many do on a regular basis. Under the conditions you have given, I wouldn't worry about it too much. If it starts happening under load, I'd start worrying.

I should have read more posts before I posted the first thing I put up about this problem......the only "ping" I have ever heard of is in reference to an engine had to do with a low octane "ping"
