This oil has survived multiple track sessions at 283 degrees F

When priced around $30 for 6 quarts of 5W-40, this was easily the best oil for the money, even in a car (VW Golf) that sees significant track use. This oil saw 283F temps at Daytona Speedway on Saturday, then did it again on Sunday. Minimal burn off (half a quart at most; less than Valvoline)

Pros

On wife

Cons

The oil is not effective in preventing engine sludge or deposits

So far its a great oil. I''ve used this exclusively for the last 2 years and have never had a problem. Oil easily lasts 7-8k miles in my 2000 4 Runner (3.4l engine). Project Farm did a review of this oil and its almost as good as the best Mobil One and Pennzoil synthetic oils coming in just behind them in all tests but far exceeding all the other generic brands and non premiums. Considering the price of this oil compared to Mobil One and Pennzoil I will stick with this for all my in home oil changes.
