Triple Action was born out of the Red Bull Racing collaboration.
Key points:
"We want to test everything. We don't just want to pass the minimum suite of tests."
"We were trying to put together an oil that would just crush all of those tests and well exceed the limits for those, "Salvesen says. "Then we tested Supercar on the track with the race teams to make sure that it's going to hold up to track abuse with higher cylinder temperatures, with higher revs, with higher loading and just the extra abuse that you're going to see on the track. It passed in both cases."
"I would say in broad strokes it helps us develop the next generation of Mobil 1," Salvesen says. "So, what you buy in the bottle today at your dealer or at the local store was probably tested on track three to five years ago. Certainly now what the race teams are testing is expected to be the next generation of Mobil 1."
"We don't just want to pass the test to get the checkmark, we do what's called ‘Proof of Performance,'" Salvesen says.
"I think that level of testing, that level of prove-out work is really what we can bring to the table versus most smaller brands."
