\"Cripps-Head-Shot\"The 2015 POLARIS Laboratories Customer Summit has an amazing lineup of speakers<\/a> <\/span><\/strong><\/em>to demonstrate how oil analysis helps drive
\naction inside their maintenance programs. <\/em><\/p>\n

Likewise, keynote speaker David Cripps, chief engineer for HERTA Racing, will bring a unique perspective to the summit. POLARIS Laboratories\u00ae sat down with Mr. Cripps for a preview of what\u2019s in store for Customer Summit attendees. <\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

POLARIS Laboratories:<\/strong> At what moment did you realize the money- and equipment-saving potential of oil analysis?<\/p>\n

David Cripps:<\/strong> In racing, the key performance area we\u2019re concerned with is drag, and there\u2019s a tremendous amount of drag within the mechanical components. Lots of R&D goes into finding bearings and coatings that minimize the drag. Mostly, it\u2019s accomplished by lowering lubricant viscosity as much as possible without lowering the life of the equipment. Oil analysis is an important piece of the process \u2013 especially when evaluating the wear on the equipment.<\/p>\n

PL:<\/strong> What is the one piece of advice you wish every oil analysis user would follow?<\/p>\n

DC:<\/strong> Data is king. It\u2019s extremely important. People will acquire loads of data thinking they\u2019ve done their job. But data processing<\/em> is what\u2019s important. You need a data reduction process \u2013 to collate it. You need to paint longer-term pictures, to refine the data.<\/p>\n

PL:<\/strong> What\u2019s the best oil analysis \u201csave\u201d you have experienced?<\/p>\n

DC: <\/strong>That\u2019s actually a story I\u2019m going to talk about during the Customer Summit. I don\u2019t want to give too much away, but I\u2019ll give you a quick preview: Assume nothing.<\/p>\n

PL:<\/strong> How did you end up coming to Indianapolis, and what do you think of the city?<\/p>\n

DC:<\/strong> [Former IndyCar driver] Dick Simon personally invited me to work for him in Indy. He was a great guy and he had a growing racing team. That\u2019s when I began laying down roots in the city. 20 years later, Indianapolis has changed a lot. It\u2019s an impressive, well-run city. The downtown went through a huge<\/u> renovation, and now it\u2019s a clean, attractive place people want to hold events at, like this summit. The city is more than just racing \u2013 there\u2019s a good cross-section of business with a little bit of everything.<\/p>\n
