Default Alcohol Engine

I just purchased a car that runs on alcohol. Something I have never messed with before. I read several posts on alcohol on here but I noticed there are several different opions on the subject. My main concern of course is the required maintenance. I purchased the VP lube and added it to the alcohol before putting it into the car. I plan on trying to fire the car up at least once a week or maybe every other week. Do I need to let the car reach 160 or 170 degrees each time I start it? I mean it really has to run a while for it to really warm up and if I do not need to let it run that long I prefer not to and I know my wife prefers it not to either because of the noise. Any advise and help on this subject would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Mike
