Now I am wondering if I will see a loss in mileage with the 0-W30?

Anyone have any idea if the difference is enough to measure???

One of our customers did inadvertently switch to )W-30 and he says he's getting about 1 or 2 mpg less. Considerering the hp gained in qualifying trim vs race trim with 20 wgt vs 40 wgt I'd say its a pretty good estimate.
