anyone used Joe Gibbs oil?(aircooled specific)
just curious if anyone has tried this?
i know there are many, many threads on oil, but it doesn't seem this one has been discussed (i searched).

Additionally, for aircooled models, we now offer DT50, a high zinc formulation for older aircooled engines in a 15w50 viscosity, again specifically tested by Aircooled Technology, another Raby Enterprises company.
Both DT40 and DT50 are 100% fully synthetic motor oils based on group 4 and group 5 base oils with a proprietary additive package developed exclusively for Joe Gibbs by Lubrizol and is not sold or marketed under any other name or brand.

12 QUART CASE $139.64

I've primarily used Brad Penn and have no experience with JG oil.

I have spoken to Charles at LNE about this oil. He highly recommends it, but he said if you are racing with it you should change it after every race weekend as it is not a "long-life" oil. The "active" ingredients are used up quickly. Considering how much it cost I passed on actually giving it a try. I use Brad Penn.
