Thats Tom Kempf, the winner of 2007 and runner up of the 2008 LSX shootout, try 7.50 @ 192
Special blend 20w-50 that has high ZDDP and MSO2 content, ultra low friction.
Tom is in between cars this season, waiting for the 2010 Camaro I think.
HogSnot is looking for a "nasty" car to wear its badge and run its oil.
Tom's a good guy, I did his entertainment system at his house for him. He knows his stuff, that's for sure. He sold the red car to some guy in Australia, and has a 2010 Camaro body on the way.
Let me tell you, the proof is in the results for me! I was VERY skeptical and would not put ANYTHING in my motors without having done some testing to back it up. Prior to using HogSnot I ran Amsoil and prior to that I ran Mobil. Since running the new oil, my turbo came apart looking like new, the main and rod bearings were great but the most important thing for me was the main thrust bearing which I usually replace often due to the extreme pressure of staging a turbo car NEVER failed. My engine builder Billy Briggs (formerly W2W) has assembled/disassembled all of my motors exclusively. My push rod tips showed no wear and for those of you that know about the excessive wear an 11deg canted valve head puts on your valve train know this is huge for a racer.
I am not saying the Amsoil did not work well because it was a night and day improvement for me over the Mobil 1 but for the reduced price of Hog Snot combined with its incredible performance attributes it was an easy justification for me to switch.
