Motorsport teams and enthusiasts rely on Valvoline VR1 10W-30 Synthetic Racing Motor Oil, America's #1 racing oil, to meet the demands of racing performance. From drag strips to paved and dirt ovals, this oil is engineered to provide race-level protection. Valvoline's exclusive high zinc and phosphorus fully synthetic formula is designed specifically for modern and classic high-performance engines, both on and off the track, including flat-tappet and performance cam motors.
Chemically formulated to reduce internal friction and enhance power output, Valvoline VR1 Synthetic 10W-30 Racing Motor Oil protects critical engine parts from wear under the extreme conditions of racing. Its high load carrying characteristics, minimum foaming under stress, and maximum resistance to thermal degradation ensure stability and lubrication.
Recommended for high-performance gasoline engines as well as those burning full or partial alcohol fuels, this racing oil is not suitable for vehicles with catalytic converters or wet clutches. Valvoline, the trusted motor oil brand for over 150 years, is the proven winner for motorsport enthusiasts.
Motor oil, made from crude oil, is used to lubricate, clean, and cool engines. Various types of motor oil, including conventional, synthetic, diesel, bio-based, hybrid (blends of conventional and synthetic), and recycled oils, are available. Motor oil varies in weight and viscosity, as well as additives that some manufacturers incorporate during the refining process.
The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) has created a numerical code system to grade motor oils according to viscosity, with the higher the number between 0 and 60, the more viscous (thicker) the oil. Most consumer motor oils are graded by two numbers, with the first number indicating cold weather (Winter or "W") performance.
The Valvoline VR1 10W-30 Synthetic Racing Motor Oil has an SAE viscosity rating of 10 in cold temperatures and a rating of 30 at normal operating temperature. Users should always refer to their vehicle's owner's manual to ensure the correct weight of motor oil is used.
As a full synthetic oil, this product is not made from crude oil. Synthetic oils can provide superior mechanical performance over traditional motor oils, including increased gas mileage and reduced engine wear at extreme temperatures. However, the complex production method often results in a higher cost compared to conventional motor oil.
Racing oils are designed for track cars and other high-compression vehicles intended for motorsports competition. They contain specific additives for increased engine horsepower and reduced friction on metal parts, as well as special protection for engines with high compression or higher horsepower. Racing oils usually include fewer detergents than regular conventional motor oils.
It is important to note that many, if not all, oils labeled as racing oils are not street legal, and it is not recommended to use racing oil in a conventional passenger vehicle. Users should always double-check the product label and the specifications of their vehicle to ensure proper usage.
