To celebrate the channel passing 100,000 subscribers, I'm going to do a 100 minute live stream Q&A this coming Saturday (August 3rd) at 11:00 AM EDT, so please submit your questions now. I will do my best to answer as many as we can during the live stream. This is my way of saying thanks to all the fellow "geeks" who love motor oil as much as I do, so I look forward to connecting with this awesome community this coming Saturday.
While this is not directly related to oil, there are some awesome examples in the differences in surface finish in this video that my wife made. Jump to 8:45 to see the surface finish measurement results, unless you just really like crochet hook comparisons, LOL.
For all the racing fans, here's some footage of Ayrton Senna and my Dad swapping the lead in the 1978 World Karting Championship.
This is the link to the timestamp where they are racing for the lead. Dad's in the blue helmet and Senna in the yellow helmet.

Tribology + Racing... It doesn't get any better than this for an oil nerd!
Is the oil sold at Walmart different than Autozone? It was fun helping Nick out on this one!
Visiting the guys at Dave’s Auto Center gave us the opportunity to talk about my favorite topics - Motor Oil and Piston Rings.
As a Certified Lubrication Specialist with over 20 years experience, The Motor Oil Geek channel delivers real data about motor oils from an expert perspective instead of speculation. Each month, I will upload a new video that either analyzes a new oil, dyno tests an oil, reveals the details about motor oil chemistry or uncovers the history of motor oil. Utilizing the same technology applied by Formula 1 teams, The Motor Oil Geek uses SPEEDiagnostix to analyze our new and used oil samples.
It's my mission to provide results that allow you to make decisions based on data, not speculation. The internet is full of people who claim to know about oil and lubrication. At The Motor Oil Geek, you get an actual industry expert with championship winning experience and the credentials to back it up.
If you know what size wrench is needed to change your oil, this channel is for you!
