Oil Recommendations for Track

I wanted to get some opinions on this. I've got cases of Mobil 1 15w50 left over from owning/tracking my 993 which has since been replaced with my Evo9. I'm thinking the 15w50 might be a good weight for tracking the Evo in the heat of the summer. Anyone using this? If not, what weight?

its good for summer , I've used it on the 8 before when the days were like 78-82 avg + and really dry. sometimes it got to like 98 and humid. It runs well with this weight but dont run that when summer is over. I was only running it during the month of june and july.

I run Mobil 1 15w50 all the time in my Evo8. It seems to hold up the best for me? I don't know why (full throttle everytime I get in it) but other oils just don't seem to take the beating.

I've ran the 15w50 during the June/July/Aug track events too.
