Looks like there's a new Royal Purple formulation on the market:
I do have a bunch of 20w-50 around maybe I could mix this in for the beater.
Wow pricey stuff.....
Maybe someone who lives up North in the Yukon Territory or Alaska may have some use for it.
It is interesting stuff tho, I just wonder what the market will be for it.
It's been around a few years
The market is sprint cars. And drag racers. And for use as an oil in qualifiers.
It's not designed for extended use.
Ah, got it. That makes better sense than.
One of those where squeezing out every little extra horsepower they can for increased speed to win the race, even with the consequence of it imploding....
From what I read on bobistheoilguy they engines have shown no increased wear
And then cut it afterwards with water. Couple of my good mates race locally “sprint cars” always use 20W-50. CoolJust cut it with diesel fuel.

Although sounds like a marketing ploy aimed at reduction of carbon printing and highlighting some 8th degree fuel efficiency.
I get what you’re saying (agreed) however there’s been publications Development of Ultra Low Viscosity 0W-8 Engine Oil that would say otherwise. Like I said, I think it’s cool but it’s marketed towards to cool kids not necessarily needed nor necessary not needed.0w8 is produced by a few high end companies and is marketed at race cars. So I doubt fuel economy has anything to do with it.
