/\ I'm gong to requote myself because a mom driving to the grocery store will certainly have a different oil analysis than me who often says "hi" to the 7500 RPM rev limiter. However, my oil analysis will certainly be different than lets say RCZ, Travis or Killerbee370's oil analysis as they DRIVE hours after hours at the track constantly redlining the heck out of their engine! Unless you're doing these in a controlled environment using EXACT car (same mileage + wear/tear), EXACT driver, EXACT driving condition, EXACT driving habit, EXACT weather conditions - that thread on my350 (and it's copied content here) has NO significant value other than confusing the living heck out of you. Start doing your oil changes and send your oil sample to Blackstone after each change. Keep a track and they will guide your though.
As for me, I simply flipped a coin and went with Redline. I was debating between Redline and Motul. I don't think there's any "bandwagon" going on here. Just go with your gut feeling. You won't be disappointed. I certainly wasn't
with Redline (but again it's MY
personal choice)
