Treat Your Engine to the Best Protection with VP Racing Oil
When racers and performance enthusiasts go looking for ways to get more power from their engines, they use parts like cylinder heads, camshafts, intake manifolds and the like for obvious reasons. An often overlooked method for increasing power can be found on the shelf at Summit Racing in quart bottles—oil.
We all know that oil lubricates moving mechanical parts inside an engine to enable smooth operation and protect against engine wear. The more informed know that oil also helps dissipate heat. Yet few people know that the proper oil can actually modify friction to create measurable torque and horsepower gains.
No one knows this better than the engineers at VP Racing. They have created a three-pronged approach to develop oils to help high performance and racing engines make more power with increased durability.
Step 1: Improve the ability of the oil to cling to metal components.
Step 2: Add multiple anti-wear agents to the oil beyond the typical ZDDP (zinc dialkyl ithiophosphate) treatment so that it adheres to metal surfaces and creates a protection layer.
Step 3: Add unique friction modifiers that reduce fluid-to-fluid friction and surface friction between the oil and moving metal components to unlock horsepower and torque gains.
VP Racing didn’t limit its formulations to race-only applications. They applied the same technology to a full range of engine oils for classic cars, street performance, diesel racing, drag racing, UTV/ATV, and even the small 4-cycle engines that power your lawn equipment.
Some of the oils VP Racing offers include:
Street Legal Synthetic Blend Engine Oil
Formulated with a proprietary blend of conventional and synthetic base oils and a state-of-the-art additive package, Street Legal Synthetic Blend Engine Oil is perfect for your daily driver. It provides added resistance to sludge formation and varnish deposits during stop-and-go driving and maintains outstanding wear protection under severe driving conditions.
Hi-Performance Synthetic Blend Motor Oil
Nothing protects flat tappet cams in classic engines as well as Hi-Performance Synthetic Blend Motor Oil. It contains increased levels of ZDDP and other anti-wear agents to significantly reduce friction, increase horsepower, and lower operating temperatures. Plus, this oil delivers exceptional rust and corrosion protection to protect vital engine internal components while vehicles are in storage.
Break-In Engine Oil
Specially designed and formulated to provide the necessary protection during new engine break-in, Break-In Engine Oil allows newly-machined engine components like camshafts, lifters/followers, pushrods, cylinder walls, pistons, and rings to properly finish seating and mating together.
Pro Grade Full Synthetic Motor Oil
Designed for professional, semi-pro, and high-intensity amateur racers, Pro Grade Full Synthetic Motor delivers superior durability and friction control. Special features include high levels of ZDDP and other friction and viscosity modifiers to maximize power and protection while lowering operating temperatures.
