    heavens above,

    I've been using "no name" brand in my cars for the past 33 years - had I been aware of amsol, I would not have bothered saving money in vain, all these years.

    confused con....

      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.
