Garage
I live in Canada and almost never allow my cars to go over 5000km (3100 miles) between intervals. I have also changed oil/filter just before a track day and then changed the oil afterward as well (not filter).

Recently disconnected the oil cooler after multiple attempts to fix several parts dripping oil under hard driving. Switched to 5W30 for a track day on Mon. Since the cooler is out I will monitor temps using Torque and will cool down once reaching 125-130 C (250 F) using Royal Purple (was on sale).

On my daily/winter driver the mileage was quite low for the first year. I followed the mfgs . recommndation and bring it in every 6 months if under required miles.
