Royal purple is a great oil for shorter uses to keep oil temps low but has been proven to not last long, professionals use it for an event then change but not a good oil for long terms of 4000 5000 miles from what ive researched hope this helps.About to change my oil and was thinking about using royal purple anyone using it yet........
I'm a long time user of RP and I'd like you to post some sources to back up your absolutely outrageous claims. addle:Royal purple is a great oil for shorter uses to keep oil temps low but has been proven to not last long, professionals use it for an event then change but not a good oil for long terms of 4000 5000 miles from what ive researched hope this helps.
I didn't claim them...they were proven by sources awhile ago that did a variety of oil tests I watched something on it and read about it, as for posting things I've seen i'm going to go ahead and say research google I wont spoon feed the lazy, I didn't say it was a bad oil but the people who are doing the races say its good but they also change it every race.I'm a long time user of RP and I'd like you to post some sources to back up your absolutely outrageous claims. addle:
The standard RP oil is full synthetic and RP themselves rate it at 12K miles. I also use their filter and have had my oil tested after this 12K interval and had no abnormal substances or quantities of contaminates. I can't find my oil test results at the moment but the oil was still good for several thousand miles even after 12K in a newish engine.
Nobody in this thread is talking about racing. Of course RP's standard synthetic oil probably isn't the best option for racing applications, thats why they make race oil... I would change my oil every oil change too if I was racing hard, as well as lots of other fluids and stuff. That doesn't mean RP's standard synthetic is any less useful than what they claim it to be. Your claims of it only being good for 4,000 to 5,000 miles in a normal road car application are unfounded and irrelevant to this thread then.I didn't claim them...they were proven by sources awhile ago that did a variety of oil tests I watched something on it and read about it, as for posting things I've seen i'm going to go ahead and say research google I wont spoon feed the lazy, I didn't say it was a bad oil but the people who are doing the races say its good but they also change it every race.

looking good manClaydog, I'm about to change my oil too and was wondering the same. I guess I'll give RP a go. Nice choice in color and rims BTW. I chose the same.
