I'd add reving the engine above 3/4k rpm the first 15 minutes after cold startup.
15 min. or so whould warm the engine up gradually and get everyting, including the oil, to the working temperatur.
I'd also add powerdrifting on dry tarmac. Puts a lot of strain on rear suspension and diff. Note drifting in the wet is fine :-)
Last, related to drifting, clutchdumping. A nightmar for the whole powertrain, engine, clutch, gearbox, diff, etc.
