Valvoline VR-1 vs. Lucas Hot Rod oil

I thought brad sold and they change their formulas?
I believe the product line was sold by American Refining Group to 'Penn Grade' around 2018.
As far as changes in the oil, so far the only evidence seems to be a competitor says so.
The current owner says otherwise.

Question for Camking - Don Terrill’s Speed-Talk

Whether they are getting the base stock from ARG, maybe not. If its the same product from a different supplier, probably doesn't matter. Source of base can matter, but if its highly refined to a base II or III, maybe not so much. ???
And if its Pennsylvania crude from a different source then its probably very close or the same to begin with.
