Default Kibort's Secret - another clue

If you have ever wondered how Mark can drive so fast, take a closer look at the attached picture.

We already knew that Amsoil is a key ingredient in his 928s performance. Now we know there is more.

I still don't know HOW exactly he uses them - whether they are eaten before or during the races, or mixed into the Amsoil.

Perhaps you guys can help me figure this out.

I don't think he needs to slow other cars to appear fast.

Clearly the citric acid in the oranges helps to provide boost at high RPMs.
