#1. The presenter correctly avoided comparing Group 3+ because most high performance oils contain them in some percentage as an additive carrier or as major component.

#2. Per UOAs on BITOG Redline motor oils in the past were usually spent at 7500 miles in BMWs.

#3. Base stock is just one piece of the puzzle. Most currently certified motor oils contain a mixture of G3/4/5 as their base. Racing oils are a different animal because they don't have the additives required for daily driving.

Interesting commercial piece.
