[Fot] race oils for TR6 & GT6

[horizonracing]

I takecare/maintain a whole fleet of racears. GIbbs XP3 is my preferred poison. At road America, the 250k was running at 260 F oil temp. Oil filter is clean.
MObil 1 quit adding zddp (zink + ??) Years ago.

can those of you circuit racing your car, please let me know what engine oil you are using.
I used Mobil 1 for years until the price got "silly" .also, it did not seem to be keeping the engine as clean internally as I would like. . tried a few locally made alternatives and nothing stood out as any better than the Mobil 1.
I tried Joe Gibbs Driven HR 15-50 today and it has not held up, with pressure falling to almost zero on hot idle, despite oil temps not getting over 90C (exact same as engine water)
thanks, Terry
