GIBBONS A FAMILY AFFAIR
Father and daughter duo, Matt and Jenny, are committed drag racing enthusiasts. They have relied on RED Line oil products for three decades. Jenny operates the Dart, which consistently achieves a quarter-mile time of 10.2 seconds. At the Masterton drag meeting in January, Jenny secured victory in the Pro Comp final. Unfortunately, during the March meeting, she was defeated in the semifinals by her boyfriend Shane in the third round, putting Shane on the couch for the next week! In January, Matt achieved a new personal best at the Daytona, recording a time of 8.62 seconds with a speed of...
Gear Oils: Understanding the Differences
In the realm of gear oils, the American Petroleum Institute (API) has delineated specific Gear Load (GL) classifications: GL-1: This classification refers to oils devoid of extreme pressure (EP) additives, typically containing fatty materials. GL-2: This grade incorporates a mild EP additive. GL-3: Similar to GL-2, but with enhanced properties. -GL-4: Equivalent to MIL-L-2105B, generally satisfied by a 50% GL-5 additive level. GL-5: Corresponding to MIL-PRF-2105E, this classification is the primary recommendation for field service in passenger cars and trucks worldwide. GL-6: Designed for severe service applications involving high offset hypoid gears, this classification is often used to describe...
The Raptor uses Redline Two Stroke Racing Oil
REDLINE TWO STROKE RACING OIL IN THE F-22 RAPTOR Paul Buckrell has consistently utilized 1% Redline Two Stroke Racing Oil plus 4% Mobil DTE Lite for his F-22 Raptor turbine powered replica, achieving flight times of 10 to 11 minutes. Redline Two Stroke Racing Oil has proven to be instrumental in maintaining the engines optimal performance during the initial start phase. He continues to use it with confidence. He possesses a 1in7 scale model of the F-22 Raptor, which serves as a representation of America's air dominance capabilities. Alongside fellow pilot Andrew Stiver, Paul has achieved flight certification, allowing...
EURO OILS WHATS THE DIFFERENCE
EURO OILS WHATS THE DIFFERENCE. Main Features and Benefits of European Engine Oil. European engine oils are specifically formulated for distinct engine types, typically catering to smaller, high-performance engines. Higher Viscosity Index: The Euro series oils exhibit a superior viscosity rating. The viscosity index quantifies the extent to which the oil's viscosity fluctuates with temperature. A higher viscosity rating ensures that the oil retains optimal viscosity across a wider temperature range, facilitating easier engine starts in low-temperature conditions and maintaining a consistent oil film thickness. Lower Volatility: Engine oils designed for European vehicles demonstrate reduced volatility,...
