Mobile One synthetic is the best for driving hard, but if I were you I would get some high mileage stuff.
Castrol High Mileage has been flowing through my engine. Overall, Castrol is good for high reving engines like ours.
You Quaker State 20-50W.

Castrol is good.

All remember to check your oil at least every day. Driving hard does not do good for you engine especially when it need oil.

Also get a good high flow oil filter like a TRD one or some other type for your celi.

Castrol Syntec, GTX, or Mobile 1... those are the best you can get.
I only use castrol
dunno y i just do prolly cuz of that supra car from jgtc
I only use Valvoline Maxlife 10x30 or 10x40 since my car is pushin 180,000 miles.
When i had the Vette i used only Mobil 1 synthetic. (almost $50 an oil change) with my 7A though, i use the cheap stuff.

Use only Castrol Synthetic 10w30, and pair it up with TRD Oil Filter

Doesn't the TRD oil filter acutally last like 2 oil changes instead of just 1???
I found that Royal Purple really works pretty good. I'm not a big fan of synthetic oils, but this stuff does work.
Any engine that has over 100,000 miles on it is probably going to burn some oil. I believe that synthetic oil is for the lower milage cars. I have 133,000 on my ST and I use Valvoline Max life. I deliver for Domino's full time so I end up changing my oil about once a month.
Mobile One synthetic ALL THE WAY! >biggrin.gif>
