I run 0W-40 ESP Dexos 2 which is made for street and track use. New factory fill for LT1 and LT4. I changed it at 4,000 miles and 2 track days and it still looked like it had some life left. More expensive ($110ish for 12 qts on Amazon), but u don't need to swap it out for track and DD. Keep it in, change when your comfortable doing so

That said, I would recommend getting some data to prove this is worthwhile. Doing some Blackstone lab tests to verify the condition of the oil and motor (must include TBN in your tests):
All of this will cost you about an oil change or so ($130). It is most likely that tests 2 and 3 will be identical to within the margin of error of Blackstone's capability. Telling them what you're doing, they may be able to give you some insight into the process. |

I'm pretty sure the new ESP oil is one you can use on both street and track.

Which is what I use, and still change my oil after 4(ish)hrs of track time, and reuse that oil in my beater(s)

OP has a blower, so the 15w50 might be his best track oil.
