(For the record.. not saying we're good now, but.. we were good then.)
You guys get RIDICULOUS calls!?! BRO-DILLA... I remember this game like it was yesterday!

Sorry, but I'm not reading all that crap.
Make your own arguments if you know better than I do.

Anyway, those refs were so obviously biased and the calls they made were so horrible, you really can't say it was a fair game.


Edit: Oh, and I'm not your BRO-DILLA, Broseph.

My FT86 will be getting only Castrol motorsport TWS 10W60. Oh, wait this isnt an M3......

I normally use castrol syntec 10W40 in my WRX and when I can find the syntec 0W30 european formula or "German Castrol" I buy that.

I'd be surprised if it made it to 100k without oil changes though.

Anybody have any input on the oil brand they use! Kyle, Jerry, Kevin. I used to change the oil in my mini when it started running rough every 3-5 months with whatever was on special down at AutoOne. That might be why by the time I sold it first gear didn't work and the crank bearings were stuffed.

Subaru guys seem to love this stuff too. Why? Isn't it for diesels? I haven't looked into the explanation yet...

To be honest, I don't know but I've been using it in my truck and on my race bikes w/out any issues. I think it the reason why it's so popular is because it's fully synthetic and cheap. :happy0180:
