Take your pick

V2 power, Xcel,XXcel,XXXcel, Big Time all will work on oil with the correct drill and surface prep.

Of the Ebonite Oil balls I've seen, I really liked the look of the XXcel.

If you have revs and need length on the oil, take the Xxcel, maybe re-surface it to 1.000 grit matte (atkingb the box polish off) if it skids too long. The ball has a lot of hook potential and MOVES when it hits dry ground!
For a stronger, earlier reaction in the oil, either XXXcel or the Xcel Particle are better choices.
