I should have added I was using 0W30 on last track day. Mistake. Haibeck is bound to see me one day though.

Re: How many miles per quart of oil?
Seems my experience is in the ballpark. Heavy afternoon of throttle and twisties with lots of third gear and maybe half a quart or a little more (my 90 has seals later installed with head work).
And, this tendancy to use more "off the top" rings a bell with my use as well. More data fer sher, but so far, very interesting! Tom, hopefully you and Frank & the rest found a high/dry spot for your Z!

Re: How many miles per quart of oil?
Hi Paul....welcome back! Yea, my kin and I are all okay. I'm concerned for Frank and his family. Kevin said he had contact and Frank & family are okay, but the house is a mess.

Re: How many miles per quart of oil?
This is a description of my experience with oil consumption. Also, my theory about why it happens.
