And that of course, is your oil. We all know the consequences of putting too many miles on oil or with too little in the engine. But selecting the proper weight and viscosity goes a long way to obtaining an engines performance potential or not.

Here at SEMA, Joe Gibbs Driven Motor Oils is showcasing new high performance oils designed for use in two of the hottest cars on the road and certainly the two hottest here at SEMA: the new 2011-12 Ford Mustang and the fifth-generation V8 Chevrolet Camaro.
