Default Anand has used both, you might try emailing him. He prefers it to Mobil 1.
I use Mobil 1 because it's available anywhere; RP usually has to be ordered, at least around here.

what I hear around here is, you can go maybe 10K w/o oil change (lasts longer) and not worry

Default It costs the same - or less - than Mobil1 if you buy it direct from Royal Purple. Go to...
