Stamford, CT. – January 7, 2009 - TODAY Green Earth Technologies (Pink Sheets: GETG), announced that GET's G-OIL™ Racer One has completed extensive trials at Daytona International Raceway in Florida to establish the performance of their new oil products. Kinetic Motorsports and Kinetic Sunbelt Engines performed on-track race tests in their BMW M3 GS car (a race built version of a standard street-going BMW M3) to establish the oil's operating parameters and concluded that the oil outperformed all the synthetic oils that they currently used. The oil will be used in all Kinetic race cars for the upcoming Grand-Am Koni Sports Car Challenge later in the month at the world famous NASCAR circuit in Daytona Florida.
"During extensive recent testing of G-Oil in our race engines at Daytona, we have concluded that the oil possesses not only the basic characteristics that we demand of an engine oil, but it in fact, outperformed both the synthetic options that we currently use. The durability and heat transfer capabilities of the oil were impressive – improvements in the range of 5-10% were seen on the track, coupled with the reduced friction that created less wear and tear on the engine components and the characteristics held together exceptionally well during our rigorous testing on the track – this translates to greater horsepower, torque and better fuel economy" said Jim Thompson Head of Kinetic Sunbelt Engines.
The track testing reinforced the recent rigorous dyno testing that was performed by world renowned and respected Roush Yates Engines in North Carolina, who are responsible for building and racing their own NASCAR entered cars along with supplying engines for all Ford powered Daytona Prototype cars in the Grand-Am Rolex Road Racing Series.
What makes the oil so unique is that it contains a proprietary ingredient and a patent pending system to support the ingredient's performance. The ingredient is called "Nano Geodesic Bearings", "NGB". These NGB's are tiny soccer ball shaped spherical shaped particles that are comparable in size to the molecules that make-up the base material of Bio based oil. These particles are postulated to spin at almost unimaginable high speed to support adjacent oil molecules to squeeze more precious horsepower out of the engine: Truly nano-sized ball bearings.
"We are very excited about having G-OIL Racer-One run at such a prestigious racing venue in a televised race that will help our consumers become more familiar with our unique product," said Mathew Zuckerman, Ph.D., President and COO of Green Earth Technologies. "This is a major milestone for GETG and "Green" products. Proven is that the highest performing product under the most sever racing conditions is bio based and not synthetic and not petroleum base. Buying Green products will no longer be synonymous with sacrificing performance."
G-OIL is the world's lowest petroleum, "eco-friendly," ultimate biodegradable motor oil. Unlike traditional petrochemical-based motor oils from leading manufacturers, Green Earth Technologies' G-OIL is made with renewable animal fats. These saturated fats have no harsh effects on the environment. G-OIL is also ultimate biodegradable, and the pro GETG announces the availability of G-OIL Racer-One to professional and amateur racing enthusiasts alike. The suggested retail price is $24.95 a quart. For a limited time G-Oil Racers-One is available in a buy one get one free offer for GETG through its website GETG.COM.
"Now consumers can purchase our G-Oil products from one of the 35 mass merchants that carry our products with the confidence that they are not sacrificing performance to save the earth." said Jeff Marshall, CEO and Chairman of Green Earth Technology.
