Driven Racing Oil Viscosity Index 101
Video Description:

In this video, Lake Speed, Jr., of Driven Racing Oil explains the different types of specialty oils available from Driven. If you always thought all oils were the same, you'll be surprised to see in this video that just the opposite is true. Video highlights include:

*At 0:42, Lake tells us about properly breaking in an engine with a proper lubricant.

*At 1:28, Lake talks about properly storing your hot rod for the winter and why constantly starting a stored vehicle is not a good idea.

*At 4:06, Lake talks about oil operating temperatures, engine viscosities, and how they affect oil life.

*At 8:35, Lake explains what the "W" designation in oil viscosities REALLY stands for (it's not "weight!).

*At 13:08, Lake explains how to choose an oil viscosity for your particular engine and usage application, as well as choosing other vital vehicle fluids.

*At 21:45, Lake explains how the Andy's Auto Sport sales staff is trained and ready to answer any questions and make recommendations about Driven Racing Oil products.

*At 22:15, Lake summarizes why it's important to choose the right fluids, and how Driven Racing Oil solves many common lubrication issues.
Video Description:

Recent API indexing is great for your typical road vehicle, but it isn't really relevant for high performance and racing applications. In this video, Lake Speed, Jr., of Driven Racing Oil, explains the API indexing method and why Driven Racing Oil does not follow the API standard. Video highlights include:

*At 0:55, Lake gives us the nuts and bolts of API indexing, why it was established for the masses, and why API indexed off-the-shelf oils just aren't made for performance.

*At 5:35, Lake tells us how Driven Racing Oils differ from typical API indexed lubricants and offer a distinct advantage.

*At 8:07, we discuss why older vehicles need specialty oils, since off-the-shelf API indexed oils aren't made with vintage or performance engines in mind.
Video Description:

In this video, Lake Speed, Jr., of Driven Racing Oil talks to us about how Driven products are created, and the science and experience that drives the development of every bottle, including API indexes and what they mean for your performance vehicle. Key points include:

*At 0:37, Lake tells us about oil bases, additives, and how these additives affect performance.

*At 2.00, Lake breaks down the reasons why your typical off-the-shelf lubricants just aren't meant for performance vehicles, and why typical lab testing can't determine the best oil for your engine.

*At 4:56, Lake tells us how Driven Racing Oil is tested in real-world and simulated environments.

*At 6:00, Lake explains why different oils are needed for different applications.

Fits On:

High Performance Air- Cooled Engines, Vintage German Air Cooled Engines

Description:
Designed for high performance air- cooled engines. Utilizes advanced synthetic base oils to provide high temperature protection. High Zinc content protects cams and lifters. Ideal for vintage German air cooled engines.

DT50 delivers the first synthetic Air-Cooled motor oil formulated with Ultra High Viscosity Index base oils. DT50 features a high zinc content to protect aggressive cam profiles, and the advanced synthetic formula delivers high temperature protection from viscosity breakdown.

Not every high performance engine has a radiator. High Performance air-cooled engines need defense against high temperatures and they require robust anti-wear protection. Joe Gibbs Driven DT50 delivers enhanced film thickness as well as increased anti-wear additives.

High Zinc Content - Higher level of Zinc (ZDP) delivers proper anti-wear protection for high output engines and flat-tappet camshafts

Extra Film Thickness - Advanced synthetic technology for greater film thickness under high temperatures and high loads.

Thermal Stability - Defends against oil consumption and viscosity breakdown.

Storage Protection - Defends against moisture drawn into the engine by modern bio-blended fuels. Utilizes a tenacious oil film technology developed for the U.S. military.

Product Features:
• Designed for high performance air- cooled engines
• Utilizes advanced synthetic base oils to provide high temperature protection
• High Zinc content protects cams and lifters

Applications:
• Ideal for vintage German air cooled engines

Also Available In:
• Case of (12) Quarts - Part #02807
