driving after break-in (2000 KM to 5000 KM)

Here is the text from the user manual

Quote:
Engine, gearbox and differential

Up to 2000 km

Drive with alternating revolutions and speeds, but do not exceed 5500/min and 170 km/h.

Generally avoid kick-down and driving under full load.

At 2000 km

Have maintenance conduct a drive-in service.

From 2000 km to 5000 km

Revolutions and vehicle speed can gradually be increased to a continuous speed of 220 km/h.

The maximum speed of 250 km/h is only to be used briefly, for example when overtaking.

So as per my understanding I wouldn't be able to take the car to the track after I do the break-in service?

I also read that but did not want to miss end of season so I went to two track events right after break-in, these tracks don't exceed 175 km/h tough.

I think they recommend to not sustain a 220 km/h speed for long periods but I think track duty is fine. Afterall 2000km is well enaugh for everthing to settle.
