Richard, I did read just today in Panorama's tech section where someone said it is good to near-redline a Porsche engine once in a while to blow out all the carbon buildup that might have accumulated from putzing around in the city and not running the engine hard.

So my question is, where is the carbon building up anyway? The heads?
