What new line of oils? The data sheets on all the VR-1 synthetics are dated 1998.

I hadn't seen this 0w-20 before. "For racing use only" explains why. At 8.0cSt, it's the thinnest 20-weight I've seen so far.

It's the VR-1 0w20 sheet that says no VI improvers are used. And this Synpower racing sheet is dated 1999. Both these oils have been around awhile.

I have yet to see a date of earlier than 2002 for the new 0/30 MXL Synpower imported for the MB/s nor has this watchfull eye ever seen or heard of a VR1 Racing Synthetic,High Performance Synthetic or a Valvoline Synpower Racing Formula prior to yesterday.

1 month ago before these new oils were shown, the website spoke of a new 10/40 Synthetic Racing oil,I called and of course the guy on the phone had not heard of it,,they are offering a 10/40 M/C oil and a 20/50 counterpart ,this I have seen and are new products also.

Some of these oils are new and worth taking a look at IMO. The 0/30 MXL is only available in 55 gallon drums that are sold to MB Dealesrships. It is the imported product from Europe I was told.

IMO Valvoline is pretty bad about not knowing their products and the likes,time will tell but I am wiling to bet these oils will be popping up on the store shelves soon,,they even have a new 10/40 HD Diesel oil along with a 5/40 HD Diesel oil. I think Valvoline has stepped up to the plate here with alot of new stuff. Time will tell

Yes it appears Valvoline does have many new oils to soon be available to include a 10/40 and 5/40 HH Diesel oil.

They might be a force to reckon with soon !

Here is the 5/40 posted by another member.
