Right in the middle of a bunch of scrub racing stuff was *Champion Racing Oil.* It is listed as Racing XP 20W50 oil. A synthetic Blend with high levels of premium zinc (ZDDP). I have been running Rotella ( old fumula 15W40 ) with Zinc. The new formula is low on ZINC. It is priced at $5.99 not bad if it will work. Will this be a suitable replacement for the Rotella? Ted, Hoosier and Pegleg let me know your thoughts. Thanks Jim Jim Rowe Elkhorn, NE
