What oil do you racers drag with?

Is the oil you use when drag racing different than the one in your daily? I just need some expertise here on a good oil.... I currently have castrol gtx 10w 30 on my motor that has 1200 miles on it.

Also, conventional or synthetic?

thanks

Sav IS sponsored by Kendall. To my knowledge, Kendall used to be more well known back in the day...

Mobile one is really tough on seals, my cam seals are leaking pretty bad from M1. I get redline at a decent price, so I tend to use that now, but M1 still finds its way in there sometime$

Stories like these scare me away from using anything but the conventional oils. Is this just a problem with Mobil 1 or with all synthetics????
