Absolutely a myth. At some point the VVT would be sluggish or get CEL maybe. That's if say an 0w-40 in cold temps. On the track it be thin enough to be fine. Remember the WRX is essential the same...

I run zero supporting mods. I just watch oil and coolant temps. I run a 30wt oil though. Stock clutch still holding ok. Tuned to near perfection.

Yes but not at that trap speed. I was 97 NA on e85. Sure I can run drag radials and dump the clutch but I don't wanna lol.

WM injection is also a lot cheaper than FF up front. Probably about 50% cheaper as you need FF kit + injectors + fuel pump to run e85.

With the longer drain intervals its not the TBN to worry about it the oil shearing too low or out of grade. The OP's shows 6.5 cst which is on the low side on a 20wt. That's way too thin IMO.
