    best oil for methanol ride

    I have ran alcohol for years. LEARNED ONE THING>> you won't have the corrosion and metal etching problems if you get the oil up to 200 degrees at the end of the race day and then vent the valve covers so the moisture and alcohol can escape.

    10-30 Valvoline Racing Oil, good reports?

    New to this site but have been drag racing for 25 years. Using synthetics for the last four years but with methanol for fuel now it will require more changes due to alcohol dillution (pretty much impossible to stop). I was thinking of using the "Not Street Legal" Valvoline Race oil 10-30. $3.00...
