Oil Life % before track?
My Oil was changed at 1200 miles, its at 34% with 5200 am Ok with two days of track this weekend? sat and sunday?

I think you have to run special oil for track use, check the manual.
|
Change it. Also, make sure it's at least a 40 weight dexos 2 (if you care about warranty).
|
Yep its about time to get it changed anyway, have them put the track use oil in.
|
the initial oil change for my first track prep in march used Royal Purple HPS 10w40 , and then 75w90 in the differential fluid , just didn't have time this week to get it done again , and dealer doesn't use the above royal purple should I still be ok? otherwise I would have to go and buy ten quarts of HPS and go to a drive through type place to change oil
|
I wouldn't track with under 45 50% oil life. It's annoying but always worth it to put fresh oil in before beating on it...... PEACE OF MIND IS PRICELESS
|
I change at no later than 50% life left for track.
|
got competing advice from the dealer, he said run it down to 10% ! and then the shop was busy at go fast ! my only choice is to buy royal purple and go to a quick change place? is that the safe bet?
|
Guess IM gonna buy 10 qts of royal purple and than go to a oil center ... anything i need to be aware of if they aren't skilled in working with a camaro please let me know don't want to screw anything up!

after looking it up is see its not dexo 2 ? ... at this point should i stick with the HPS or switch to something else? scratching head .... |
make sure it's Dexos 2.....have used RP in the past a couple of times and not had any good experiences, so I personally stay away from RP....
