The street version does not contain zddp. VR-1 does contain zddp and is
labeled for off-road use only but
does not contain the high milage additives of the street version. It is
meant to be changed after every race,
or about every five hundred or so miles. This is about the milage the
average LBC
`weekend tourer' does in a driving season in a moderate climate area.
