Valvoline is 480 dry boiling, ATE is 536. is the extra 50 degrees of headroom really going to matter at n00b levels in a 165hp car?
I tracked my miata with multiple drivers and back to back to back long track sessions with valvoline and it held up fine.
my first hpde in my wrx IIRC I used carbotech panther+ pads and stock fluid.
