Driven Racing Oil: DI Synthetic Performance Racing Oils

Direct injection and turbochargers are a powerful combination, but using available high torque at low speed can lead to abnormal combustion that not only degrades performance, but also causes damage. This low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) occurs when the mixture of air and fuel—injected directly into the combustion chamber instead of the intake port—ignites before the spark and as the piston is still moving upward, resulting in excessive cylinder pressure (or “knock” in mild cases).

Driven Racing Oil has conducted research confirming that an oil’s detergent chemistry can impact LSPI. To meet this problem head-on, Driven has developed the first line of motor oil formulated, tested, and proven to protect direct-injection engines better than API oils: the DI series of synthetic performance motor oils.

Available in 0W-20 (DI20 #18206), 5W-30 (DI30 #18306), 0W-40 (DI40 #18406), and 10W-60 (DI60 #18606), DI synthetic performance motor oils are ahead of curve when it comes to the new 2018 API SN+ engine oil spec, providing an immediate solution for direct-injection engines. They combat LSPI and contain additives to prevent soot-related wear and reduce intake valve deposits typically caused by volatile off-the-shelf engine oils.

Features

  • High-temp, high-shear protection.
  • Prevents deposits on intake valves.
  • Provides soot-related wear protection.
  • Combats abnormal combustion and knocking.
  • Available in 0W-20, 5W-30, 0W-40, and 10W-60.

Royal Purple Las Vegas Bowl in the Books

By John M. Arnaud

Parts Pro sponsoring vendor Royal Purple is of course known for its high-performance lubricants, but college football fans will also know it as the current sponsor of the Las Vegas Bowl, the 16th-oldest FBS bowl in existence.

Traditionally pitting teams from the Mountain West and Pac-12 Conferences, the Royal Purple Las Vegas bowl this year featured an all-Utah showdown between the Utes of the University of Utah and the BYU Cougars. Utah raced out to a staggering 35-0 first quarter fueled by turnovers before holding off a second-half BYU surge to win 35-28—its second straight victory in the bowl.

We’re busy catching up after the year-end chaos like everyone else, but we didn’t want to let 2016 get too far gone before congratulating Royal Purple on another exciting year of Las Vegas Bowl sponsorship.
