Oh, I noticed all of those 350Z on my way home broken down due to too many miles on the engine combined with warm oil. Semtex, I think you know the answer to all of this. What I just said above. Put on the cooler and get on with it.
You don't need to track this car to hit 260 degrees. That's the problem with your little Track=Cooler Roads=Just Fine dichotomy. If you never hit 260 on regular roads, more power to you, and congrats on saving ~$400 on an oil cooler kit. But there are some who do hit 260 on regular roads.
