I said racing because under "race" conditions the engine will be running pretty hot so you need something like 60 weight oil to handle that extreme heat. As the heat increases the oil thins out, having 30 weight oil will thin out more at 100degress C than 60 weight will at the same temperature.
So where am i pulling shit from? Maybe you should read up on how oils actually work.

You're spreading some bad mojo man. If you want to put 5W-30 in your M fine, but I'll be the guy doing this->
when your car breaks down.
