All that racing is motor oil? With this article I hope to dispel some rumors and disbelief. First pointed out that there is a place for racing engine oil. Let there are two very different areas. In the professional arena and in the Sportsman.
In the professional area of several million dollars in sponsorships, do not make one liter of oil of $ 10.00 or break a race team. But in the professional ranks, there are those who believe that a particular brand or oil, like Valvoline, Quaker State, One Mobile and Royal Purple, and I think this is to use best available oil and n ‘that particular brand . Also in this store. Many teams use a specific type and brand of motor oil, either mineral or synthetic motor oil or because of a sponsorship package they have with the oil dealers.
In NASCAR, they are concerned about one thing. The engine in a race, a 400, 500 or 600 miles event have emerged. After this race the engine is no problem, this team anymore. After the race, the engine is returned to the engine shop, for a total rebuild and dyno. Try to tell you that the team that you own Mark Racing Oil is better than the others or make their machines no longer sell a lot of oil.
In NHRA drag racing and IHRA, to be destroyed in the professional ranks, the engines after every ΒΌ mile. Most of these teams do in the type of oil they use race and only use this brand. After each pass of the oil switch is changed. In drag racing, there are several types of fuel. Many exotic fuels require a special type of racing oil to prevent oil dilution by the fuel used.
In the arena Sportsman, where I am, racing oil is a very big problem for us. We want a reliable oil for our cars. In asphalt oval race track and the teams will continue to use the same engine for a certain number of races. After each race, they do a lot of different checks on the status of the operation of the engine to check and continue to operate this engine. Most of the oil is changed to change after each race. It is likely the same number of teams running synthetic oil Racing that those who run the oil regularly. Name brand is who has or builds engines based on their cars.
In Sportsman Drag Racing, we are the same engine for the entire season Baring cause major engine damage. The checks are made after each race to get a baseline of the duration of their performance as the engine. Several times the oil changed will change after each race. But consider this: eight tracks of 8.1 miles until ten non much mileage we tend to run the engine every year or season or until failure. In Sportsman Drag Racing, the racing engine is a very big problem. We want the maximum performance from our engine every race, or a trip on the runway.
Racing oil including synthetic racing has its place on the shelves and cases deserves a lot of athletes racing driver. While most all motor oils (engine oil regularly may be) and used in the Sportsman racing arena we all tend to use the Racing Motor Oil of our choice.
