You shouldn't need to ever put oil in a NASCAR engine during a race. A NASCAR engine uses dry sump lubrication. This means there's a tank that holds several gallons of oil in the trunk of the car, a pump driven off the rear end, oil coolers and hoses to bring the oil forward.

Yes
The question of whether NASCAR should continue racing during oil crises has been broached on several occasions, namely during the oil shortages of the 70's as well as the price inflations of the 2000's. In the 70's races were shortened in an effort to save precious fuel. Today, this is less of a concern, as the fuel used in a typical NASCAR race is of a much higher octane and would be unsafe to use in a typical street car.
I'm not sure if it the factually correct answer, but the widely accepted largest, most improbable comeback was Bill Elliott at Talladega in 1985. He made up over 5 miles that year after I believe an oil pump died on him.
During the summer a 30 weight oil is all that is recommended. During winter operation a 10W-30 oil is reccomended.
I believe it takes ( 6 quarts ) with engine oil filter change
Millions to the guy who changes your oil.
The engine oil capacity of a Saab 9-3 is 5 quarts. This includes a small amount of oil stored in the oil filter during replacement.
32:1 if you race and 40:1 if you trail ride only ouse yamalube or 2stroke race oil not the crap from napa that just says 2stroke oil, Your engine will work better.
have a Renault laguna 3.0 v6 24valve engine...what is the best engine oil to use during service
Type of Engine Lubricating Oil versus Alternator OperationNo, the wrong type of oil within the engine should have no effect on the alternator operation.However, IF in the process of putting oil in the engine someone were to spill some of the oil onto the alternator, AND IF some of that oil got into the alternator it could cause damage to the alternator.
I assume it is the same as the ( 1996 ) Mercury Villager : With engine oil filter change : ( 4.2 US. quarts of 5W-30 engine oil )
