I did address that very issue the very instant you brought it up. I shall
repeat it, junnie, because you were obviously too stew ped from eating dinner
to understand. race engines are pre-lubed before startup, therefore race
engines have full oil galleys before ignition, therefore gain no advantage from
multi-grade oils.

So then you admit that single viscosity oils are superior to multi-vis
oils, with the exception of pre-lubing?

The manufacturer of the twin cylinder engine on my small tractor
recommends straight 30-weight oil, as does the manufacturer of the
engine on my lawnmower. Gosh...you'd think they'd insist on multi-vis
oil...
