Engine oil recycle / Tire recommedation
GlennLever:
I also use Brad Penn
dreracecar:
Save some of that 2-3 pass oil and send it in for testing
Sidewinder:
Thanks for Your replays guys:) Over here several of other racers tend to recycle their oil.
Bruce, as you say, we probably can run longer between change of oil. The engine Builder has done a Perfect job, the tune-up is a litle fat (safe side).
The oil is not very milky, but if you test it, you can feel it's less sticky. Other pro teams change oil more often. the price over here is about $10 for a quart. I use 8 Quarts of Kendall 20-50W(New) or 6 quarts of recycled 20-50W and add 2 With Nitro 70. The Nitro 70 has moore of the good stuff.
Brad Penn is something i will consider in the future:) And Bruce, as said, we change oil to be on the safe side. We do not run With a filter either.
By changing oil more frequent, we can also check if there is anything in the pan, monitoring:)
I think my local supplier has some 3.00x19 left. I really whant to stick With the Borranis:)

If you would have mentioned that little tidbit about not running a filter in the begining of all of this, I would have not wasted my time writing a response
Sidewinder:
Sorry that I wasted Your time;/
