I have a Legends Race car and have been hearing good things about amsoil. It runs an air cooled yamaha 1250cc engine with a wet clutch. I was wondering how much a case of your oil would be for motorcycle oil (the one with zinc) would cost to be shiped to GA 30092 and if you could get it?
Thanks!

Maybe you will find this story interesting ...
An AMSOIL Story from just over a year ago.
Modified Legends Race Car Driver ... Tim Curtis, learned the value of AMSOIL products through experience on the track.
His first season of driving on the INEX legends circuit in 1998 was a long one, with lots of engine problems. He decided to see what AMSOIL products could do to improve durability and performance in his 5/8 scale legends race car.
"I tried every other oil under the sun that first season," Curtis said. "These cars run hot with the Yamaha 1200 air-cooled engine and no matter what I used or how often I changed it, it still smelled burned when it came out. The season ended with an expensive blowup. I started doing research on oils and found the performance characteristics of AMSOIL very intriguing, and the hype from loyal users was too much to ignore, so I bought a case to try out."
The results spoke for themselves, he said. The engine ran cooler and didn't seem to bleed power when it got hot. The next season's engine lasted the entire year and upon rebuild looked great, with reduced wear.
The legends car is AMSOIL-equipped from front to back with AMSOIL Series 2000 20W-50 Racing Oil in the engine, an AMSOIL Super Duty Oil Filter, AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty Grease protecting the wheel bearings, suspension ball-joints and steering box, AMSOIL 80W-90 Gear Lube in the differential, and all of the rod-ends lubricated with AMSOIL MP Metal Protector.
The fiberglass body components are kept showroom clean and shiny with Amsoil Miracle Wash and after a long night at the track, the crew cleans up with Amsoil BriteSide Heavy Duty Scrub Hand Cleaner.
It doesn't end there. The 1999 Ford Expedition tow vehicle also is fully AMSOIL-equipped. It got a dose of AMSOIL Engine Flush when he bought it two years ago with 25,000 miles on the engine. "It is running strong as ever with 77,000 miles, pulling a 6,000-pound trailer in the 95-degree Carolina summer heat," Curtis said. He runs AMSOIL 5W-30 Motor Oil in the engine, uses an AMSOIL Super Duty SDF-11 Oil Filter, and AMSOIL Universal ATF in the transmission.
"I use the same in my wife Connie's 2001 Honda Odyssey," Curtis said. "The door hinges on my trailer also get a shot of AMSOIL MP Heavy Duty Metal Protector. I also use AMSOIL 100:1 2-Cycle Pre-Mix in my mowers and trimmers."
Curtis has collected several wins and finished an impressive top 10 PRO division N.C. state points championship for oval track legends, and a top 5 in PRO division N.C. state points championship for road course legends.
"It's great to have a product you can rely on and believe in," Curtis said. "When you talk about performance enhancement from lubrication you may get some funny looks, but the savvy guys will listen to you. Mainly what racers want is protection of their investment and AMSOIL products deliver both protection and performance.

A Testimonial From A Legends Racecar owner ...
AMSOIL proves to be a legend among Legends
Dear AMSOIL:
"I'm writing you to tell you my story about my race car and AMSOIL. First let me tell you I am an AMSOIL dealer because of what I've experienced with your oil.
I own a Legends car and have been racing since 2003. The motor, a 1200cc Yamaha air cooled engine, had approximately 75-100 races on it. The number of races in which this motor lasted is unheard of in the Legends series because of the heat generated and the rpms. The only type of cooling system on the motor is an oil cooler. I use AMSOIL 20w-50 synthetic motorcycle oil in the engine.
In late 2005 the engine lost compression in two of the four cylinders. The engine needed to be overhauled, and I didn't know what to expect when the engine was opened for rebuild. I called my engine builder, Galen Tiffany of Tiffany Motorsports in Sand Springs, Oklahoma. Galen at first asked me what kind of oil I used. When I told him AMSOIL, he told me "you probably won't find much wrong with the engine because you use AMSOIL. You will find only normal wear and tear."
Tiffany Motorsports overhauled the engine and Galen Tiffany wrote the following about the engine: "Valves show little wear, all bearings were within tolerances of new. It's my opinion the AMSOIL is responsible for the lack of overall wear. I normally find that most of these engines are dirty and the oil pan has sludge in it. This engine was extremely clean and when I took the oil pan off, there was no sludge. NONE."
So you see why I not only use your products but why I'm a Dealer. I will continue to use your products. I have changed all my vehicles to AMSOIL. Thank you for making such GREAT products!" Tim Hindman, Colorado
