You did just fine. Probably the best thing you could have done for it.

Subject: DML: AHHH!,I finally got on my truck a little!
Well people,My best friend came over today,and he hadn't seen my truck in a
while.He asked me if he could see it,so I took the cover off of it.He asked
if he could hear it since I got my exhaust dumped,so I somewhat unwillingly
cranked it up.He asked if we could go for a ride,so I let it warm up for
several minutes and we went for a little ride.He has always begged me to get
on my truck at least once,just so he could feel how fast it was(remember he
had a '92 and a '97 318 truck).So I found a clear side road and I stopped.I
took of in first and wound it to about 3700,then barked the hell out of a
secind and wound it to about 3900.At that point, I figured I had done enough
abuse and I took it home and put it back under the cover.Do ya'll think I
hurt anything by doing this? I hope not! I am now kind of worried about the
long-term durability of my motor.How many of ya'll have seen 100,000+ out of
a motor that you are hard on,or race?
