Real simple...

Anyone use AMSOil Series 2000 20W-50 Racing Oil? I want an oil to give me the maximum protection for driving on 80+ Degree days during autocross and road racing events.

Ok, I'm ordering a gallon of 20W-50 (summer) and 0-30 (winter).

It's the 100% synthetic unlike Mobil 1, I have no idea if it's going to make a difference, but it can't hurt.

Mobil 1 IS full synthetic. Maybe you're thinking about the Amsoil XL-7500 which is a Series III (pseudo-synthetic).

Actually, Mobil 1 isn't full synthetic. Type "Mobil 1 lawsuit synthetic" in google. This is the reason why they now call it try-synthetic blend, because it's not completely synthetic, it's starts organically. Whether this makes a difference, I don't know, but I would suppose when your driving your car at 10/10ths it works better.
