I have no problem with him interacting with the club. But if he is making comments directly too me. then I will respond. But since the history of this speaks for its self... I will again say... everyone has the right to speak, I always urge people to do so in a respectful manner.

I dont wish to make anyone an enemy. Nore would I seek to banish him. But making arm chair snipes... earns you no points in my book. That said if you feel I am to harsh in your comments, I can admit that, I am regretting engaging in such back and forths.

laksman, for me, this has nothing to do with what car you drive, not in the slighest. its posts such as post 7, and a few other notable ones that make me scratch my head. but hey... its late, and I am tired.

We al know (or should) that Castrol Syntec is a Hydr-Cracked Group III oil.. Not a True Synthetic. (PAO or Ester based)

The one question is the German 0W-30. Is it ? Maybe but the Specs look like a Hydro-Cracked.

Remember, by Law, it only has to be 30% Synthetic Base Stock to call itself 100% Synthetic. I beieve the rest is like 40% Hydro-Cracked and then Petroleum and additives allowed for the final make up.

AMSOIL is unbeatable.. Type depends on build.. SSO 0W-30 is the top of the line street oil.

The Racing Dominator Series is awesome... RD-20 5W-20 is a great oil but is recommended for Off-Road use only due to possible effects on Cataytic Converters.

I'm enjoying the amount of info being provided, but when someone is giving their opinion there is no need for the Amby-style smart-@$$ comments towards ppl with alternate views. Saying **** like "go and do some research and come back when you have something to conribute" is picking a fight and unecessary (do you disagree with that?), just state facts and share your view like LG is doing and everything will remain kosher. Thanks to Wow, Evo_soul & LG for expanding my oil knowledge!
