I am still very new at reading UOAs, so I thought that some of you veterenans can help me out.

Driving- Four 3 mile trips to work uphill, everyday. 50% highway 80-85 mph for 350 miles, 4000rpm+, Redline at least once a week. Oil ran from 3/2003-7/2003 in 60-85 degree weather.
My only concern is why the oil thickened up so much. I though M1 was tends to be on the thin side? The previous oil also seemed really thick, so maybe it is the lab
Let me know what you think.
Thanks
