Question Silkolene Pro S vs Pro R

What is the difference between the Silkolene Pro S and Pro R engine oils? Several dealers claim that the Pro S is a true ester-based oil - is it?

Pro S comes in two viscosities, 5w-40 and 10w-50

Pro R comes on two viscosities 0w-20 and 15w-50

They are all race oils with small variances in basestock blend (ester/pao) but are all 100% synthetic race oils with no petroleum oil content.

Hope this helps

Cheers

Are there any issues with swtching straight to a fully synth oil, i.e. will there be an emulsification of the two oils which might create some nasty solids/sludges?
