Do I need to break in my new G-Force tranny before taking it to the track? Would a weeks worth of daily driving be enough?

I would drive it easy for about 500 miles just to be safe.

Exactly what I would do too. Easy up and down shifting, don't force anything. With a good break in, all transmissions shift smoother, shift faster and last longer.
