Is synthetic oil more eco friendly?

I’ve seen this discussed at length on some blogs and forums recently. The basic theme seems to be that it’s not much better from a eco-friendly perspective since the used oil still is damaging to the environment, and has to be disposed of somehow.

Point 1 – lower foreign oil dependence

Point 2 much less oil to dispose of due to extended drain intervals.

Ross Martin opened the 2010-2011 AMSOIL Championship Snocross Series just like he ended last season by picking up podiums.

 

Martin, riding for Team AMSOIL out of the Judnick Motorsports trailer, picked up a pair of second place finishes at the AMSOIL Duluth National over the weekend. In a great race during Saturday’s Pro Super Stock final, Martin battled for the first half of the race with TJ Gulla. Martin took over the lead at the races mid-point, but then dealt with lap-traffic and a hard charging Tucker Hibbert for the final five laps. Hibbert took the win, but Martin was right behind for second.

On Sunday, Martin got out front and look unstoppable during the AMSOIL Pro Open final. But once again lap-traffic and Hibbert were Martin’s Achilles heal. Hibbert snagged the lead with less than two laps remaining, and Martin didn’t have enough time to real him back in.

In semi-pro action, Team AMSOIL/Scheuring Speed Sports rider Darrin Mees has quickly adapted to his new. Mees also took a pair of podiums, finishing second on Saturday and third on Sunday in the Semi-Pro Super Stock division.

The ACSS heads to Fargo, N.D. on December 10-11 for the next round of racing. The ACSS will air on Versus starting December 19.

Until then, we’ll see you at the races.

Team Hybrid: Making It Happen with amsoil

 

Team Hybrid: Making It Happen

Every serious import owner is on a never-ending mission to pull out all the stops in creating the best ride that eclipses any other on the scene. Team Hybrid is no exception, and in fact sets the standard for today’s performance automotive enthusiast. They have been steadily generating buzz by landing some high-profile magazine covers, most recently in the January/December issue of Performance Auto & Sound and PASMAG Overdrive. PAS Magazine features two magazines in one with a cover for both, and Team Hybrid made another mark in the history books by landing both covers for the second time. No other team has accomplished this, which goes to show how revered Team Hybrid is by the respect it receives both in print and on the street. AMSOIL is installed in some of their vehicles currently making headlines, including this one from owner Charleston Penesa.
Currently featured on the cover of the latest PASMAG Overdrive, Penesa’s 2006 Mitsubishi EVO IX engine modifications include a Buschur Racing 3076R turbo kit, 1000cc injectors, HKS Super Suction intake system and much more. In keeping up with these high-performance standards they use AMSOIL Series 600 Brake Fluid, AMSOIL Synthetic High Performance 10W-30 Motor Oil and AMSOIL Ea Oil Filter.

AMSOIL covered this feature in the Promotions blog back in July when it was up and coming, and has since followed Penesa and Team Hybrid as they continue pushing the envelope in the import circuit. Founder James Lin received one more testament to their team’s viability at the 2010 SEMA show, learning Team Hybrid was confirmed to be the most published team in Performance Auto & Sound Magazine history. As one of the top three best-selling enthusiast titles in the US and the number one title in Canada, this is no small accomplishment.
AMSOIL is pleased to lend support to such a talented team of enthusiasts. Team Hybrid has the ability to generate buzz and awareness for not only their rides and organization, but the companies that sponsor them. Look for the AMSOIL logo placement on the cover of PASMAG Overdrive and watch for future updates. As they make their mark across the import circuit, Team Hybrid is rising fast and showing no signs of stopping.
