I hadn't seen that article before, cool stuff. However, and they make it clear in the article, this is far from a complete picture. I'm not convinced that it's very useful. My first concerns....
1) wouldn't a heavier weight oil pretty much always beat a lighter oil in this test?
2) wouldn't this all be a bit more useful if the oil was tested again at like 250 deg? Unless I missed something (and I may have, I read over it quickly), I didn't see any mention of temperature control.
