If you have a more than 30 min drive back - I would stop every 30-40 mins to let the engine cool down (maybe wait about 15-20 mins each time) ... this is a good way to read the manual and learn about your car as you are waiting...

Its not good to run a new engine for extended amounts of time... also make sure you vary the RPM a LOT!
