Well, another thing that is on the infomercial is where they have several 
cars going around a race track with no oil, onlythe prolong.  I think 
there is a small car, a taurus or something like that, a van and a dodge 
viper.  Supossedly there is no oil in any of them and it was somethingl 
ike 100 degrees and they ran for hours.  another demo that they did was 
that they had a couple women drive around all day in some 4 cylinder 
economy car, and have no oil.  Eventually they stopped  cause they ran 
out of gas.  I dunno, the stuff is intriguing...
