I do that to all three of my cars. Oil temperature at proper level? Buckle up!Well of course not. That’s not what I was inferring. I’m taking about these people who beat on their cars everywhere they go.

That doesn't blow up when you floor it.Then you buy another car.
I've got the pedal to the metal and the thing to the floorThat doesn't blow up when you floor it.
Or like they say in these parts, mat the pedal.
not necessarily. When I was young I revved the nuts of my first cars engine. All day every day. When I was done with it my sister drove it and after she was done with it the dealer she part exchanged it to sold it again. I put over 100k miles on it with revs above 4k and up to 6.5k (redline)I thought this was going to be about Redline oil. Anyway, if you redline often, you will find that your engine will fit loosely in a 5 gallon bucket.
Engines handle it better than you think if you don't grossly exceed redline (Maximum recommended RPM), Most modern engines have a Rev Limiter.
I've beat the snot out of many of my own engines & never had stuff exit the engine block. Back in 2000 I bought a LS1 out of a '97 Corvette that was totaled in a fire, Had to chisel what was left of the plastic intake out of the Intake ports. I just replaced all the external gaskets & installed it........
Ran it for about 20-30,000 miles & relined it every chance I got. Then I installed a Supercharger & put another 30-40,000 abusive miles on it.
The charger had to be rebuilt twice as it didn't like the smaller pulley I installed.
The Engine started using oil right before I sold the truck, But was still in one piece.
You can't burn off carbon on the backside of the valves by performing an "Italian Tuneup" because the valves never get hot enough.dont have or want a DI engine + its carbon issues BUT its noted to raise RPM in a lower gear to be speed legal + drive it for a while say 1/2 hour as the heat is said to soften + remove deposits. my traded port injected 2001 jetta 1.8T ran great at trade in 200 thou + 20 on the boost vac gauge!!
IIRC it was done to remedy carbon deposits within the combustion chamber, rings, exhaust port, on the old carbureted which were constantly driven at low city speeds. These cars ran so rich in the city that you could smell gasoline coming out of the exhaust.The Italian Tuneup predates DI
Isn't it mostly for spark plugs? That's where the low speed deposits would happen that could be cured by the ITU.
If I had a VTEC Honda, I'd run to redline once a month.
