I say drive the car reasonably gently for the first 500 miles. Transmission makers recommend that, clutch/flywheel makers recommend that, rear end makers recommend that, plus it will give you a chance to get used to the car. Driving it gently for the first 500 miles won't hurt your engine in the slightest (after it's broken in on the stand, of course).
