Default Anybody use Shell Helix Ultra Racing?

Just wondering if there are members that use this oil?

I was looking for oil and came across this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shell-Heli...item56521adbdf

Its £90 for 20 litres! According to the seller Ferrari use it.

Is it safe for use in our cars?

As above, scoobyworld service my car and put this in last time round. Has performed really well, can't honestly say I notice much of a difference though and definitely no complaints or problems.

It is a good price, but Im wondering if Ferrari have their name on it because they reccommend it or is it some kind of money making deal.

Would you say 10w60 is too thick? I think the popular 10w60 is Millers which I have seen a few posts about.
