[QUOTE="UnleashedBeast, post: 11871425, member: 112023"] You were open tracking your car with a 5W-20 grade lubricant? That's the strange wear problem you were experiencing. Minimal, you should have been using a robust true synthetic 10W-30. Correct, 5W-20 was adopted for CAFE laws only. Road racing with a 20 grade lubricant is a bad idea. The one VOA (Virgin Oil Analysis) I've seen on LOS doesn't support these claims. Viscosity was in the 60 grade range with no anti-wear additives to speak of. It was nothing more than a super viscous base stock used to increase the viscosity of another host lubricant. [/QUOTE]
