*NEW *- Joe Gibbs Hot Rod Street Oil

[buster]

Hot Rod Oil

Quote:
Higher levels of Zinc (ZDP) than regular passenger car oils. Delivers proper anti-wear protection for older style push-rod and flat-tappet engines.
Superior camshaft wear protection chemistry. The same wear protection found in Joe Gibbs Driven Racing Oil which has powered Joe Gibbs Racing to multiple NASCAR Championships.
Uses the same oil additive technology developed for the U.S. Military for storing and shipping their combat equipment. Protects against rust and corrosion so your engine is protected even when it’s not running.
Synthetic formula provides the best characteristics of mineral oil without the unwanted saturates that can lead to sludge and varnish, and it provides improved cold-start protection compared to conventional oils.


Quote:
Contains the same additive technology used by the US Military for storing and shipping combat equipment worldwide.
Protects against rust and corrosion during storage and operation.


For older engines, I think this is the way to go. JGR experimented with every known racing oil available and developed their own line of racing oils. They now are making street oils for the Hot Rod crowd.

Funny how you understand JG's marketing hype, but not my idea.

See I TOLD you there is a market for this.

BUT - mine is better. Straight SAE 20,30,40,50!


Got the JG formula??

Can I go vomit loudly in the corner now?

Wow, kudos to Joe Gibbs. I just ordered a lifetime supply and e-mailed them to suggest that they make a line of single grades too; they e-mailed back saying it was a great idea....

Wonder who makes Joe Gibbs oil? It looks like something us old car guys would like.

Zinc is 1270ppm. Pour point is -43F and flash point is 387F (a little low on FP IMO).

Best price I found in a quick search was $9.16 per qt. and free shipping for 12 qts. Too high for most people IMO.

Lubrizol is their technical partner and Delta Petrochemical is their blender. If I want to know something about a product, I call them and find out. I don't speculate.

I'll tell them Pablo and GMAN said NO VII's are better and maybe they will change the formula.

You don't know what you are talking about.

For their racing oils, they compared Redline, RP, M1R and nothing was better than their own oil. M1R was the best of the others. They did try Amsoil 0w-30 at one point.

Remember, these guys just didn't get into this because they felt like it. The current oils available where just not good enough for *them*. So they went out and explored their options and created their own product in working with the chemists/blender.

Article on JGR Oil

Quote:
"Finally in '98, we had a few connections that came about and we were able to talk directly to the engineers and the blenders, the people who made the oil. That was the best thing we've ever done because we could actually talk to the chemist and blender, standing right there (involved) in the same conversation and they would say this is what we need to do to fix this. This was something we, pretty much, had to do because we were having such problems."

The development process was smoother than anticipated said Cronquist. Initially, there were 5 oils made and evaluated. One oil was chosen and with that base product some 6 others were eventually developed and tested based on power and durabilty issues which took approximately 1 1/2 years to complete and evaluate. The results have been amazing, resulting in today's Joe Gibbs Oils.

When hyping an oil, you can throw this one out to the crowd:

Marketing hype? Are you kidding me? At least they are not using the 4-ball wear test. I'll tell them Pablo and GMAN said NO VII's are better and maybe they will change the formula.

Buster, you've edited this PUKE at LEAST 3 times.

Listen - I have nothing against these oils. But why are you spokesperson for them? Use the stuff, and have at LEAST 20, (30 would be better) cars use it and get back with me. Post the results. Until then it's all talk.

And will you please stop bringing up the 4-ball wear test. OK we told Pablo and G-man they don't know what they are talking about.......so now let's bring up not using the 4-ball test, that will prove to the crowd that Joe Gibbs oil is REALLY good.

Again - if you have a boner for this oil, use it!!! Spread the word and have others use.....oh, that's what you are trying to do......

Pabs, I don't think JG is going to cut into Amsoil's market share.

Bruce needs a NASCAR name and a marketing angle (and the desire to engage in such for profit activity).

JG oils are way more niche than Amsoil. There are less expensive products that will work for anyone except those of exceptional usage.

Wasn't too worried about market share, more worried about buster's sanity....I hope he is OK. He seemed to flip out.... G-man got rid of a bunch of this thread. He was raving about going to Helen, etc. Strange.

Oh ..I missed the hysteria. Buster can lose it from time to time ...no biggie. We all have our episodes

"Bruce needs a NASCAR name....?"

Who does he work for, Lubrizol or Delta PetroChemical?

Neither ..but he can blend up stuff that makes JG oil look mild.

He makes it sound easy. Pinch of this ..dash of that.

Pinch of this...dash of that...and you wind up with an oil that's got 2000 ppm of moly!

What if we find out that Joe Gibbs uses Amsoil in his wife's SUV?

 

[GROUCHO MARX]

Those Toyotas that Joe will be racing next year need some help. I wonder if this will be the answer to his prayers?

Not a chance.

I hope it performs better than the Washington Redskins.
