It is well documented that it is more important to change the filter
between race weekends. The oil's protective properties lesson over time,
but are not so much as to need changing every weekend. So filter change
every weekend, oil change every other. Easier to do these changes between
weekends, as doing it on an hourly basis may prevent you from making a
session. Use the hr meter to judge the frequency of refreshing combined
with a good leakdown
