Tungsten Disulfide Lube

[pw]

Just thought I'd pass this along and see if anyone else has had similar experience.

I bought some of this high priced lube advertised as "unmatched lubricity" and super low coefficient of friction. We ran time trials on our practice track vs typical graphite lube. The car's time increased by about 0.02 seconds reproducibly with the tungsten (total track time of about 2.01 seconds). Definitely cant recommend it.
