Are you trying to tell us that Britishtrident is Alan Partridge in real life?

I think so, I think he secretly likes Castrol GTX but is trying to throw us off the scent ^_^

Many years ago I used to race Imps and Davrians we used GTX then a 20w/50 in the sump and had low oil pressure problems when hot , switched to Duckhams 15w/40 and the oil pressure when hot actually increased by about 10psi.

That grade GTX is an enhanced mineral oil these day anybody putting anything other than a full synthetic or semi-synthetic in anything but an old banger is taking unnecessary chances.
