All depends how serious you are.

Some guys change oil after every serious event.

I change mine once every 1000 miles or so.

If you're using old change it depending on your driving habits.

It's you drive you it pretty spiritedly, and you drive it pretty regularly, you're going to want to change it well before 3000mi. Every 1500 or even every 2000 miles should do.

If it's car you just thrash about on the weekends, then I'd change it every one or two months.
