I still want to know how many passes Brock recommends on that oil before being changed?

3k miles, read his post. Racing or not, 3k. Unless you melt clutches often, but thats a no brainer, you are contaminating the oil with chunks of fiber, so change it when that happens.

Read my post because I said no street miles. 1/4 mile only so your saying go ahead and leave it in for 1600 passes ? seems a little long to me But I will try it. It's a little less then 2 miles round trip at track.

I am saying that the clutch condition will dictate oil changes becuase of contamination, so I don't see anyone making it to 3k miles of pure racing.

I get an easy 500 passes out of my clutch so that's why I would like to see Brock say how many passes for an oil change vs miles. that's all. some guys change there oil every weekend and I don't think that's needed with a stock motor if you get good clutch life.

I can't believe that Smokin will be running it. I remember in his old one he said and I quote "it made my bike sound like a trash compactor". ALLL of you guys including Chris Jones blasted the me and the 0 weight oil. I even ran 0 weight oil with a 40 shot with zero problems. I swear by that crap! Lee, you will see huge improvement with it despite the sound of the motor...lol

If I could get an honest answer on number of passes Brock goes before changing it out I would try it, but if it's every 50 passes that would get expensive in a hurry. I run 5-20 mobil so guessing might not see the full 3 hp anyway.
