Re: Castrol R

I still use Castrol R in my 2-sroke garden tools.  I love the smell, I just
close my eyes and I'm somewhere else other than our backyard (just watch
those digits, though).

I also use Castrol R in my old 100cc go-cart too.  I know there are better
lubricants, but I'm too sentimental to give it up.
