Use their 5-20 break-in oil...you can get 20-25 passes on it. It's very good! Brian Hafliger

The down side to it that I found was when you are double entered running a pro and a super class it tends to get thin quick with heat. I noticed the second run it would always pick up .03. I was running the 20w50. I have since switched to the Joe Gibbs Driven oil same viscosity with better consistency. Competitive Suspension Solutions

Compared to what? Kevin Torco synthetic we had in one of our race engines. Nothing wrong with the Torco though...great protection from that oil and that's all we use. I tried the LAT a couple of times, picked up power always but not enough for me to change over to it...mostly because of cost. The Torco does a great job and is less than 10.00 a QT.

Not something for a bracket racer or someone that goes a few thousand miles before pulling a drain plug. Mopar to the bone!!!

Brian That's a pretty good gain from synth to synth. I have a buddy that runs in a dirt roundy round crate motor class that saw that kind of gain going to Mobil 1 from conventional oil. Kevin
