Looks interesting.

It's one of their racing oils; not very sutible for street use.

Yeah I know I figured someone was using it anyway or possibly in a mix.

 

[deven]

Its the best oil they make....

deven,

I don't know anything about any Quaker State line. I've heard some negative stuff anecdotally on BITOG - but not sure what the consensus is on QS. But anyway, why do you say it's their best oil?

 

[ericthepig]

I do know my favorite NASCAR driver (#24) sponsors it.

It's a PAO/Ester based oil. I think it's only sold thru certain distributors. Also doesn't have detergents for street use I believe.

As Buster said, its mainly PAO/Ester based oil and a lot of people in the racing world choose it over redline, that in it self tells you something. A lot of the racing mags and car mags I read, Q 17.5w35 is always mentioned first when discussing topics about racing or modding a race car and what oil to use.
