Solution
Eurol Specialty Racing 0W-40 offers a lower friction coefficient, from the cold start to the engine on operating temperature. Combined with outstanding wear protection, top speed increases of 1 kph have been measured on low top-speed tracks like Zolder. This is a direct result of lower friction in the engine and drivetrain.
Customer testimonial
Francois Verbist, Team Manager, Comtoyou Racing: “Approximately 0.8 kph faster on average for car equipped with Racing 0W-40, even though the track (Zolder, Belgium) is not suited to top speed runs, as the car only gets up to 210 kph.”
