Lol!
or Passats....
How's about a westy? Now that's a fun time in 80kph crosswind. BTDT, got the
t-shirt and the bent bumper. Trying out a truck camper for size this time.
Now there's a nice windcatcher too.

At operating temp, the hot viscosity is not too different among oils. That
said, small differences in viscosity and related drag should have a
significant effect on something that small that turns so very fast.  a few
percent difference out of 20K rpm is quite a few turns.

By the way, see y'all, I'll be gone with my family for a week at a lake
north of here (Prince Albert National Park), then to an invitational race
next Saturday on the way home in Saskatoon (Bridge City Speedway). Life is
good.... Back sundayish a week from now. Taking the car along behind the
camper. WooHoo!

I'm sure James will back me on this one...
In cross winds,boys with Rabbits should stay in their burrows; and leave the
road clear for men with Quantums !

What effect would different engine oils have on turbo spool-up?
