I have used Valvoline VR-1 20W-50 racing oil in my race TC and road MGs.
Last year I had to strip the TC race engine apart. After 10 years racing,
with oil and filter changed each spring, the engine internals looked like
new. No wear on the crankshaft, bearings needed to be replaced, ( after 10
years racing small wonder ) , camshaft was good , lifters were good.
My road TC also has used Valvoline VR-1 20W-50 racing oil for the last four
years. Fortunately have not had to strip down the engine yet.
The only problem I see is the price quoted in the attachment, $11.99 US$ per
quart borders on highway robbery. Cost should be less than half that.

I use VR1 in my car and according to this I don't see why I shouldn't:

Valvoline " reduce(s) friction and enhance(s) power. It is among the most
popular engine lubricants in racing, including CART, stock, and drag. It is
recommended for engines burning gasoline and full or partial alcohol fuels
for track and street service."
