[Fot] isky oil recommendations

[Ken Knight]

Advice below is very good, Joe Gibbs Driven is excellent oil.  I use the break in oil for an hour or two on the stand, or a couple of track sessions, the switch to the Driven 30 wt.  These new oils (well not new but modern) are awesome and flow at low temps and protect at high.   No need for the 20-40/20-50’s of Christmas past.  For both coolant temps and oil temps on cold track days I just tape the grill.

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to All, lets all toast Kas with a glass of Cheer this Holiday, he is missed.

Greg,
That page is loaded with good advice. I too have had great success with VR1, but on my last new racing cam, the irreplaceable Larry Young 310,  I used Driven Break In oil, first. I use Driven cam paste and VR1 for everything else.
