Last night my wife and I attended a meeting Of Amsoil
Dealers from the Seattle Tacoma area.Guest speaker was
Donald Nichols from Roanoke Virginia.Mr. Nichols spoke
for two hours.It was a question and answer period
mostly.His first question was "who knows anything
about
Nascar Racing"?About a dozen dealers raised their
hands."How many race teams do you think use Amsoil in
their race cars"?I was thinking maybe half but it is
70% and Mr Nichols sells to these race teams.Jeff
Gordon,Dale Jarret,Petty Racing,Earnhardt to name a
few.This is a secret among the race teams as Big oil
Spends millions to advertise their name all over these
cars.His best story was about I believe Tim Richmonds
team having Chevron Uniflo of Superflo plastered all
over.Chevron does oil analysis after each race.When
they switched to Amsoil four races went by and then
Chevron wanted to see them extract the oil with a
company tech on hand.They came to realize that it was
not their oil being run in the car they so heavily
sponsor."Well what are you using in it then"?Amsoil !
Why?Team manager explained to the Chevron fellow."I
know your name is on our car but would you rather see
it in the front of the pack or in the middle or back
because this car is three miles per hour faster with
the Amsoil than the Chevron blend...I asked him what
the other teams used.Roush Racing blends their own oil
and Mobil 1 are next most popular.I found out a lot of
things that I never knew last evening I thought I
would
share with those who love to treat their cars to
premium products.....
Chris.
