I write off anything that says Racing....very VERY few of us use our cars under race conditions only. Just because something is used in a car that's started up ONCE under ideal conditions, run at redline at normally ideal conditions, shutdown, then torn apart and rebuilt with fresh oil and filter every 500-1,500 miles or less has absolutely nothing in common with 99.999% of the cars on the road. Not mentioning most full blown all out race cars have a special mix formulated specific to their situation...with additives and detergents not being a concern when they are more worried about heat resistance.

As for the VR1, Valvoline refuses to publicize what their base is on the VR1. I'm going to assume it's a group III oil blend with a little POA like the rest of the "synthetics"...especially considering it's price.

i'm discouraged by it all, don't know what to say or what to do....it's like looking for the corner in a round room
