It's just such a bad idea to collect data at the track, better to keep it on the dyno or in the shop.

I do have a question. Since you are preaching about how wonderful overcooling your oil is, how come M5 has a mode to limit your revs when the oil is too cold?
I guess it would be easy enough to test on the dyno, just disconnect the oil temp sensor and connect a variable 5V source. You can then dial in any temperature you want to test what the ECU does at a given "fake" oil temp vs a real world temp.
