Default Recommendations on how the break-in a new engine

Hey everyone,

I picked up a new 11' 370z coupe A7 sport & nav at the beginning of Feb. The nissan dealer did not suggest on how to break-in the engine on the 370z. I have put a couple hundred k's on it in the last few weeks, but I don't think the piston rings have seated yet, because I have punched it a few times and I am getting a burnt oil smell.

Any recommendations? Please don't say to baby it till like 5K, cause this car is way to fun for that.
