Yeah I'm tracking the car almost every weekend, so I'm also changing the oil often. It'll be ~2500 miles for this change.

I have Motul in my transmission and will be putting it into the differential too!

I'm getting my oil changed Friday, so I'll get a UOA for the Belgian 0w30. Motul 300V 0w40 is going in.

Results?

Just changed my oil to the new GC 0W-40 it seems slightly thinner than the Mobil1 0W-40 but I can still tell it revs the engine a bit slower than with the old GC 0W-30 which I always used.:ughdance:
Next oil change I will try 2 bottles of GC 0W-40 with 3 bottles of 0W-30.

Can anyone confirm that you guys are using this 0w40 Castrol EDGE? It says formerly Syntec. And it says made in Germany. I cannot find legit Castrol Syntec anywhere near me.
