It's not like it's going to be hard to do that living in the city.

Bull****, just do some slow figure 8s in a big street to wear in the new cones and then drop the oil after a 1000ks. Also BW78s tend to like mineral oils better if your stuck on what to put back in it.

Even if its just to get you through the bathtub curve without a major incident at speed for arguments sake.

LSD's are fine, just depends who builds it. Mines 6 years old now, still goin strong and it's only had 1 oil change in that time. 1.4/1.5 60's at the track every time. Hacks tuff skids. Legal as ! Wouldn't have a spool over it ever.. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
