out of the ordinary oil concern?

so here is the thing...

i recently did an oil change ... maybe a month ago.

i have mobil 1 high mileage synthetic

car is a 89 240 stock ka24e

i have been out drifting at least 6 or 7 times revving high and all that good stuff.

usually i can expect some oil to be burnt but every night i go out... the next morning i check my oil and it seems i have lost no oil at all. since ive done my oil change. its been full .

wth?

that confuses me whats going on.

Burning oil is usually a somewhat slow process unless your engine has a shit-ton of miles on it (or a rotary). My dad's Camry has almost 184,000 right now with a leaky valve cover and he says he adds one quart every few months or so. I'd say you have nothing to worry about, you're either pretty fortunate and aren't burning any oil or not enough to be concerned about between reguar oil changes.

My SR has probably 10k TRACK miles on it and it doesn't burn a drop of oil. Bone stock engine, never been opened up.
