just drive it normally. i rev 1st gear lightly up to 3.5k as usual but dont mash the pedal. the bigger issue is how much load you're forcing the engine to push while cold i thinks.
Here is spearfish's video:

By the time the oil hits 180F, it's less viscous and flows more easily...you'll have lower oil pressures. No wonder why some guys probably blew their oil cooler lines!
