Default Re: Brad Penn Oil

I've been running the CAM2 Blue Blood Racing Oil, 0w30 synthetic... full time, both class and bracket racing. Not only is it 2000PPM zinc, but I stumbled on an interesting "side effect"... the car has been deadly consistent even in the late rounds when we start hot-lapping. Won three straight 7-round races at Pageland Dragway. On performance, it doesn't appear to have any "break in" period... seems like the first run is as fast as the 20th. You can get it right off their website and get it drop-shipped to you.

Or is the 20th run as slow as the 1st run......

I've run a wide variety of oil over the years, from Valvoline 5w30, Amsoil 0w30, Mobil1 0w30, Joe Gibbs XP1, among others. I run 55+ races a year, so I have quite a bit of data to form my opinions from. In terms of performance, the CAM2 is as fast as anything else I've run -- what I would call a 'full time' oil, something that I run in class or bracket racing, and can put plenty of runs on it with no worries.

Jim- I sell Brad Penn. You can't make a buck with the crazy and stupid marketing format that they have. Other than that, If you buy it by the pallet as a dealer it is a better deal that the Valvoline race oil (non synthetic). As an oil I can not complain. The 20-50 is great oil for a bracket car. There are a number of Porche road racers that use the 20-50 in their road race cars and thats in an air cooled engine. I started using the 0-30 this season and I have no info as of yet. All synthetic motor oils use Mobil 1 base oil. Everyone just puts in additives to get their oil to do certain things. Usually their claimed pluses are not worth the $ paid for the oil. Take for example Castrol, they only spec oil. They don't make it. They contract others to do it. Motor oil is like cars, people are brand loyal regardless of facts

Brad Penn is the best oil you can buy... Switched to Synergen synthetic for three passes last year which was a big mistake!!! Nothing against Synergen because it is good oil, but I will never use anything but Brad Penn again...
