Right now i run the K&N Gold oil filter but saw online that FRAM makes a racing filter. I dont race but run my car wide open for 12 hrs straight every month (driving across florida). I have read alot about fram oil fliters sucking, any word about the FRAM racing filter? Is it any better than any other fram?

Screw fram.

Even if their "racing filter" doesn't use cardboard endcaps, don't support their main filters that do.

NO. Stay with the the K&N. Fram sucks major balls!

Fram filters are the worst made. You might as well stuff a dirty sock in there.

The one and only time I've ever seen a Fram filter used one of my relative's cars was on my aunt's Dodge Colt. I was changing her oil in exchange for her letting me borrow her car for a few days and I had paper bits come out when I drained the oil. The oil change sticker that the quick lube place put on the car indicated that the oil should have been changed 200 miles prior - so basically the filter has 3200 miles on it...
