Smokey Yunick...from the Corvette guys

As far as I'm concerned, mineral based lubricating oils are about as antiquated as the Model-T." "I would buy and use a synthesized polyester-based engine oil--even if I had to pay $10 a quart or more for it" from POWER SECRETS by Smokey Yunick (1983)

Smokey was the man! In '86 Chevrolet invited Smokey to drive all the GM production cars. After Smokey finished driving them GM asked what he thought. Smokey said they should shut down the assembly lines and redesign all the vehicles. GM didn't want to hear that and they never asked Smokey again but Smokey was right. Everything GM made then was crap.

Smokey always lived by the simple saying "Tell it like it is" and he did,,, Unless it had to do with the competition in a race. 

"I can tell you not to call their next years models junk if you want to get paid by them.....I know first hand that'll tick em off"
