In my C6Z, running 90 miles at 4800 RPM and 230* oil temp only drives the oil monitor down about 2%, but then that is nearly continuous steady driving at 150 mph. A track day of 70-100 miles will take it down 7-8% running mostly 4-7K rpm and 280* oil temp. That is mixed with 100-500 highway miles each way at <2000 rpm to get to the events.
