Two things I wonder about Mobil 1:

1. How much of the money goes to NASCAR for each bottle and jug they sell?
2. Why is there a NASCAR emblem on their Euro oils?

Maybe it’s the other way around?

Yup, we see the same thing with M1 0w-40.

Are there any other manufacturers that run street oils in race cars?

Maybe VW is going to have a Jetta in the series!

Yep - great bit of info really and shows that off-the-shelf motor oil is more than sufficient for just about any kind of driving you can throw at it!

I'm quite sure. Just interesting in teh case of LM for example, they have HD race oils in their lineup as does M1 but they choose to run their more street-car orientated ones. Likely some marketing involved there as well and they clearly know it won't grenade their race teams' cars or they wouldn't do it. I know Unitronic and New German Performance that run VW race cars all use the LM LLHT 5W40.

Isn't EDGE SUPERCAR a sub-brand of EDGE, and kind of difficult to get a hold of? If that's the case, then Castrol is cheating here a little bit. Do they run their EDGE Euro 0W-40 for example in any race cars?

Liqui Moly is expensive oil, so it better be good, lol. Which one is their top-tier oil, Leicht Lauf or Molygen?

It's the Leichtlauf High Tech which is basically just a normal 5W40 Euro oil. It is interesting - their Molygen is sold by some outfits as the high-performance oil but it's not what the racing teams use that I've spoken to.

just because their stickers $$$$$ say whatever does NOT mean its whats actually being used!!!

Johnny (former Pennzoil employee) and Doug Hillary have both confirmed that M1 0w-40 was actually used in the race cars by the Porsche teams.

Mobil 1 has 0W-30 and 0W-50 racing oil, so why would they use the regular 0W-40 for racing?

No it is not a sub brand IIRC it replaced the RS line in some locations, it is not hard to get at all if you are willing to pay for it. Your question was..

Now you are moving the goal post. Why don't you just add the proviso available for cheap at Walmart.

I was thinking of EDGE SUPERCAR 0W-40. Where can I get that one? Apparently it's close to regular EDGE 0W-40, but not the same thing.

I’m beginning to think that your posts are just an endless series of tickey-tac questions with no purpose.

Why don’t you search for it and let us know what you find? I found some that was for sale in about 20 seconds. You’re the Obi Wan, I thought you knew everything.
