Thanks for the feedback. I have a new 23 and am going to be tracking it for the first time. I went with the 15-50 because it was all that was on the shelf at the local A/P store. I agree with your comments on keeping rpm low until the oil gets warm. It’s probably not an issue at all, other than in Northern winter temps. I trailer my car to the track.
PS - This 23 replaced an 18 and I’m surprised how much higher the oil pressure reads on the gauge on the 23.
