those of you who race your engine alot, like me..

do you see your engine oil gone little bit after a while??

I put mobil one tri synthetic, 4000miles ago, up to full in oil indicator, now it's in the middle..

is my oil leaking?? or is it burned cuz I raced so much?

i changed my oil, and now it is below the lower hole and i don't think it is leaking so, i dunno. how many quarts did you use? i think it said 3 in the manual but that seems like not a lot to me.

1/2 quart in 4000 miles isn't anything to be concerned about but it is time to change your oil. Even with synthetics, you really should stick to a change interval that matches your style of driving. Changing it every 3000 - 3500 miles (or 3 months) should keep your engine happy for a long time.

4.75 is about the exact amount you should put in.
