It's not that I don't love my current fill of Motul 300V 5w40, it's just that I cringe at the price everytime because of my 10qt sump.
It's been at the back of my mind for a while to use something else. Was passing through Autozone yesterday and noticed they are selling a Castrol Syntec 5w50. My car sees plenty of track time and I do drive the car hard.
The reactions to this oil seem to be mixed. The VOAs look really solid, and it has a good VI of over 200. But some claim it shears to a 10w40, and others say this is untrue.
Would this be a good choice for my motor, or am I safer with something like Mobil 1 0w40, Red Line 5w40, etc?
