Yes you will. You can finish the race. I've done several endurance races with different cars and its okay if the oil light comes on. Just change oil after the race. Good luck!

If your oil lamp is on for a long time it may also hurt your hp forever!
good luck.

Well, I've noticed if you accumulate a lot of miles on one vehicle, it's hp rating starts going down.

When I play, I never noticed any HP reduction In fact, after buying your cars, if you get, like, 2 oil changes, both times it should INCREASE your HP.

yes, that is a strange fact that when you first buy the car, 2 oil changes will increas the hp...and during the running in period, the hp will increase slightly (just like real life) however, also just like real life, the HP will gradually start to go down over time as you rack up some serious mileage. This is NOT all down to the oil though. obviously as the oil gets old, the power drops too, but changing it will only increase the power back to where it was before the oil got too old. if youve done a lot of mileage the power will actually have dropped. i have a brand new f1 car, and its producing about 20hp more than an identical f1 car thats done like 3000km.
