    castrol edge 5W 50

    I have used it in my Shelby a few times. It seems to be good oil but I heard it can shear down to 40wt. if driven hard. I think a guy with a Porsche posted somewhere on it. I might go get me some before the sale ends.

    What happened to Arco graphite motor oil?

    I think it leaked out all over the roads back in the 80's. Those old 70-80 cars were not keen on that stuff as I recall

    GPS Speed vs. Speedometer
