Dunno about racing oil in a road car. They lack detergency. They're meant for engines that will have a frequent teardown.

See
http://www.enginelabs.com/engine-tech/racing-oil-vs-street-oil-know-the-differences/

So, I've always thought is best to stick to a good street oil.

That article has been around and around and around. Its on every car forum where the dude has been confronted in countless ways and he never comes clean to tell you what his test method or apparatus is. So not worth the paper it is written on in my opinion.
