Default Brake Burnishing Part 2

Ok, do you do the procedure after 500 miles, or do you have to wait until after 1,500 miles as the manual says no track events until then. The only reason I ask is the burnish procedure is listed in the "no track for 1,500 mile" section and not with the 500 mile break in period section.

Any thoughts?

drive to a local runway-strip(lenght about 3-4000ft and ask for permission doing
0-125(5th gear/4000rpm)-0 mph for 6-8 times.
I´m concerned that your brakes will be nearly as good as my ones.
(better than ceramis of Porsche Turbo and GT2)
