Valvoline VR1 - Lake Speed Jr. Eval (Video)

Been subscribed to this channel for a few weeks now. Sure, they are selling their oil analysis service, but there's usually no pushing it in Lake's breakdowns of the oils.

Discusses the 'new' SP based additive package in VR1

I see they've added Titanium and Boron, and it seems it has even more Zddp than it used to have, very nice

However, i wonder if Valvoline will bring this new version here to the other side of the pond.

And if they'll update the 5W-50 and 10W-60 versions too.

LSPI.... like someone is using conventional 20w50 in a current TGDI or TPFI engine with LSPI issues....
I don't even worry about the calcium with all that LSPI mitigating z/p

It is good to see that even newer conventional or race oils are benefitting from newer additive techs whether I care for them or not. I'll take the side orders of titanium and boron since the calcium appetizer is gone.

They still make the synthetic version.
