Maybe you haven't looked hard enough. I bought two quarts of 20W50 VR1
yesterday at my local Autozone. The other local stores carry it too.Â
The first bullet on the back label calls it "High Performance/Racing
Oil". Here's a blurb from Valvoline's website:
https://sharena21.springcm.com/Public/Document/18452/18bdee61-0a7e-e711-9c10-ac162d889bd3/a61538b4-0cbd-e711-9c12-ac162d889bd1
I've been using 20W50 VR1 in my '69 MGB for the last 5 years or so. I
use synthetics in my newer cars.
