Visit Dow Corning Automotive: http://www.dowcorning.com/content/auto/
and search for pdf documents on the subject of : Zinc dialkyl dithio 
phosphate.  Don't use the abbreviation ZDDP.

You should find over 70 documents which are for the most part 
readable, but technical in nature - lots of test data, charts and 
graphs. DCorning is big in producing Molycote products which is 
supposed to be an excellent friction reducer. A sneaky racer might 
put this in the engine, transmission and rear end and use moly based 
grease (BR2, I believe). The car would then go so fast that you would 
experience warp speed "time travel."
