Do you think my car would last longer and go faster with Kendal nitro 70wt oil? 🤔

Happened to see this oil on Amazon.
Before i knew better I used to run valvoline sae60 racing oil in my 89 jeep.
If you are short tripping to the store and back, and need to get there in under 7 seconds, then it's probably the best choice.
For street engines ?
Nahhhh….
Although I DO use this oil, as an additive, 1 litre at a time in an oil change.

That's what we ran in this bike. 670 rwhp Turbocharged Hayabusa running on Methanol. If your car is something stock running on pump gas, then probably not the best option.

Skip the 70w, run gear oil. Seriously, what are you trying to accomplish? 70w is WAY too thick, use what your car mfg recommends.
70w is for nitro cars that dilute the oil with nitro , not for any road car.

Just stop-you're giving us moose at bad name...
The Kollective will probably try to lock you up for running a non-RC oil, especially one that will sap about 50% of the power of a 4-cylinder. Unless you're in Death Valley in summer, when the 70wt will still be thicker than cool molasses! /end tongue in cheek

I think the OP was being sarcastic.

I the mid/late 80s, I had a ‘78 Pontiac Grand Prix LJ with the 301 V8. That engine was so wore out I was running Kendall GT-1 70 weight oil in it.

Yep, Bonneville during the World Finals that year. It had some traction problems as the Salt that year wasn't ideal. It only went 235 mph or so, on gearing good for 290 mph.
It was licensed and street legal in it's home State. But it didn't get ridden much on the road, as it's range was short burning Methanol, and you can't just fill up at the next gas station.

I know. It was a joke, wasn't posted as being something serious
