Valvoline vr-1 $9/qt racing is also great too and is available at autozone and such but not really needed unless you run e85.


I don't know how well our cars wear but 3 track days on a single change might be too much. Only way to tell is universal oil analysis.
I was just doing some reading on the endless oil threads, and it seems like the general consensus is that xxW-40 is too high of weight.

After much contemplation, I went with the Eneos 0W-20. I average around 2-3 autox events/month and some street miles on my basically stock FRS. We'll see how the oil performs, but based on others' results, I should be in good shape.
