Hey Autocrossers,

Have you experienced any oil starvation issues? Besides keeping the oil level full (or slightly overfull), what preceautions do you take?

I've heard from people that have had no problems while paying relativley little attention to the oil level, to people that have spun bearings (don't know what level of precaution, if any, they took) while autocrossing.

How to play it safe?

I use 6 qts of Mobil 1, change it regularly, and don't worry about it.

Excellent!

I hope to get some wheels and tires on and seeing what she'll do.
