Rose-Hulman Institute places 2nd in Shell Eco-Marathon

I would just like to thank Xado for the products that they provide for our
team and for their continuing support as sponsors. The products are world
class and are better than anything I have ever used.
At our recent competition,
we ran a whole day of testing without any oil (not my fault haha) and had
absolutely no problems whatsoever. We filled it with oil and haven't had any
problems since - no metal shavings, no bearing wear. We also use Xado oil in our
cylinder heads. Our heads used to run at over 200 degrees. After switching to
Xado oil, the heads run only slightly warmer than what is comfortable to
touch. In addition, Xado has improved clearances (completely eliminated
our crank play) noticeably and reduced reciprocating friction by a huge
margin. I attribute Xado as being one of the key factors in our strong
second place finish at the Shell EcoMarathon with 1637.2 MPG. Once again,
I cannot thank Xado enough for their support. I am certain that without
them, we would not have finished so strongly.
