My 2 Cents
From what I saw in the last dragster mag of '08, we have a choice between Valvoline (national events only), and Red Line (national & divisional). I'm a Valvoline man when it comes to my truck (10W30 Durablend is great oil blended for trucks with towing needs...thus the only oil in my Colorado since it had 15K on it), and now it has 76K), but thanks to Castrol, I may be putting their full syn in my Z24 as well---if the lure of Red Line's divisional postings doesn't sway me their way???

We are passionate about our team. Nothing wrong with that !!

I'll be at the garden on Teusday for the B's vs Habs game. I dont think the montreal fans will boo the national anthem on the USA like they do at the Bell Centre.

Brad Penn oil (old green Kendall) seems to work and protect well. They also have a breakin oil for all the flat tappet racers. It still has the proper level of additives that are required for race engines. Now, if it would only warm up. Dyno

Yes, Valvoline is one of the best ,and the still support the racers,BUT, YOU MUST BUY YOUR OIL FROM THE VENDOR REP ON THE MIDWAY AT A NATIONAL EVENT TO GET PAID !!!!!! .....and yes, I learned this from personal experiance. ........Did not get paid from Valvoline's vender rep for this reason. ......We buy large quantities of Valvoline product from NAPA for the auto dealership I work for, so I always get a couple of cases at a time from them. ......At their request, I fowarded copies of invoices to the rep, but as of today I still haven't been paid......Tom
