I posted this link on the noria forum awhile back. Data isn't too new but the spreadsheet and accompanying graph are nice.

From this analysis, it appears that Redline didn't fare much better than Castrol GTX, although we have to realize the Castrol GTX was the "run-in" oil. Makes we wonder what Castrol GTX would have done after the run-in?

The Mobil 1 Tri-syn seemed to fare better than either the GTX or the Redline. Maybe Redline's Aluminum complex FM is not what the technical paper's say it is!
