Default Red Line Oil!

Just recently replaced my Mobile 1 with the Red Line. After driving in excess of 150mph and consistenly 120mph for more than an hour, and back down to 10-15mph on the German Autobahn because of the typical German "STAU" traffic jams, I have to say I love looking at my teperatur guage with this stuff in. I recommend this stuff to everyone. The true synthetic.

In Germany? I wish I were a dealer then I'd be making enough money to mod my 2000 Torch Red fully stock, the way I wanted.

In about 95 degree weather,which is pretty warm for Germany, In the above conditions 184 was the hottest that I saw but I didn't think to look until about 15 min into the STAU.

That's pretty cool With a Vinci 170 degree T-stat and fan controller my oil still hit 212 degrees today on the highway at 65 MPH (It's the states you know) during my 30 mile commute.
