About Maxima Racing Oil

In competitive jet ski racing, performance is everything. From the explosive acceleration of a race start to the relentless demands of high-speed competition, every component must perform at its absolute best.

At the heart of that performance is something every serious racer understands: the importance of exceptional engine protection.

Maxima Racing Oils has spent more than four decades developing high-performance lubricants, engine oils, and specialty products designed for the extreme demands of motorsports.

Founded in 1979 and headquartered in Southern California, Maxima has become one of the most respected names in racing lubrication, supporting professional competitors, championship-winning teams, and performance enthusiasts worldwide.

As a featured sponsor of Team Goatcher Racing, Maxima represents the technical innovation, reliability, and competitive determination that define professional personal watercraft racing.

Born from Racing. Developed for Champions.

Maxima's story began with a passion for motorsports and a determination to create better lubrication technology.

Founder Dick Lechien recognized the racing potential of his son, legendary motocross competitor Ronnie Lechien, and saw firsthand the challenges associated with maintaining high-performance racing engines.

These experiences inspired the development of specialized lubricants capable of delivering improved protection and performance under demanding racing conditions.

What began as a commitment to solving real racing challenges evolved into an internationally recognized performance lubricant company.

Today, Maxima products are used in more than 50 countries, supporting athletes and enthusiasts across motocross, off-road racing, powersports, automotive competition, and other demanding applications.

Its philosophy remains centered on developing products that meet the expectations of serious competitors.

The Demands of High-Performance Jet Ski Racing

Personal watercraft racing creates a unique set of mechanical challenges.

Engines operate at sustained high RPM, experience rapid throttle changes, and must deliver consistent power through aggressive acceleration and demanding race conditions.

For competitive jet skis, engine reliability can be just as important as outright horsepower.

A mechanical failure can end a race instantly, regardless of the rider's skill or preparation.

High-quality lubricants play an essential role in reducing friction, managing heat, limiting wear, and protecting critical engine components.

From traditional two-stroke racing engines to modern high-performance four-stroke platforms, selecting the correct oil and maintaining the engine properly are fundamental parts of race preparation.

Maxima develops specialized products designed to address these demanding operating conditions.

Performance Products Built for Motorsports

Maxima Racing Oils offers an extensive range of premium lubricants, maintenance products, and specialty chemicals.

Its performance-focused product portfolio includes:

  • Castor 927: A renowned castor-based two-stroke racing oil designed for demanding high-performance applications.
  • Formula K2: A synthetic two-stroke racing lubricant developed for high-output engines.
  • Super M: A high-performance two-stroke oil formulated for engine protection and dependable lubrication.
  • Marine Pro: A specialized two-stroke lubricant developed for marine applications.
  • Four-stroke engine oils: Advanced formulations designed for demanding powersports engines.
  • Gear and transmission lubricants: Products developed to protect mechanical components operating under heavy loads.
  • SC1 High Gloss Coating: A popular maintenance product designed to restore shine and improve the appearance of plastic and painted surfaces.
  • Specialty maintenance products: Cleaners, assembly lubricants, coolants, and protective products supporting vehicle maintenance.

These products reflect Maxima's commitment to combining laboratory development with practical motorsports experience.

For riders and mechanics, using the appropriate products for their particular engine and application is an important part of maintaining competitive equipment.

Castor 927: A Legendary Name in Two-Stroke Racing

Among Maxima's best-known products, Castor 927 holds a special place in the world of high-performance two-stroke engines.

For generations of motorsports enthusiasts, castor-based racing oils have been associated with competition, high-revving engines, and the unmistakable atmosphere of race day.

Castor 927 combines castor oil technology with modern lubricant formulation to deliver protection for demanding two-stroke applications.

Its reputation has made it a recognizable product among riders who appreciate the mechanical heritage of traditional racing engines.

For fans of classic jet ski racing, two-stroke engines remain an essential part of the sport's identity.

The sound, acceleration, and character of these machines helped define the legendary racing era of the 1980s and 1990s.

Maxima's continued development of two-stroke lubricants helps support enthusiasts and competitors who keep that tradition alive.
