I'd use it for old worn out engines, since I dont have any nitro dragsters. (not yet anyway)

Info for it can be found here.

To summarize the above link, it's got .26% zinc, a lot more than normal oils, and a TBN of 15. It should work good in old worn out engines with no oil pressure.

I actually think it would be safer than Lucas, because Lucas has some additives used in gear oil, and there has been some evidence that it causes foaming.
