When you guys say this works wonders and "oil B" sucks ****, I wonder what you base it on. "I've been very happy with "oil A" but "T-H-I-S" ****ed me over?! It's oil...

+1 It's not good on an engine to change up oil with that many miles on the clock. Changing from Mobil 1 to RP will make NO difference in power anyway. It's just motor oil people. Most drag cars change there oil after one day of running. A buddy of mine has a 5 second car an he runs regular old cheapo oil because he changes it after every day of racing. If you want to spend the extra money on the RP then get at it but it's a complete waste of money.

Do you know that for a fact? No, you don't, so you assume they change it on that interval? LOL, who is doing your fact checking for you? He's not running low tension rings on that setup so I doubt there's any blowby getting into the oil, so I'm more willing to bet they change it after AT LEAST a full event.
Disclosure: 2.95k is a rough estimate, but you get the idea.
