Valvoline Vr1 racing oil
 

Greetings Oso members has anyone used this Vr1 20/50 racing oil. Is it better then others on the market?

I have used it in my boat. I think it is good oil. I have 20 quarts I am going to put in my new rebuilds once the break in period is over.

What oil are you using break in?

2 seasons now running in 525 EFIs Pressure holds up real well even after some really long burns I selected it based on zinc content.

iam currently running rotela 15/40 in my boat it has a good amount of zinc in it, but i also run valvoline vr1 10/30 in my drag car, its a very good oil hands down,

been using it for years

Rotella, like most auto products has reduced the levels of zinc.

I've learned, that there is more to a good protecting oil, than just zinc PPM.

The VR1 is a good oil though.

VR-1 is all I use.

I am biased because I am employed by Ashland Oil, the parent company of Valvoline........but yes, great oil :D What ever brand you choose, choose an off road oil that has not been molested by the demands of today's automobiles.
