Your 370 is not outrunning a GTR at 200F or 280F....

Just as a heads up, the OBDII system doesn't read the oil temp as one of its parameter. If you lose power, it's most likely because of the variable timing or car pulling time due to intake temp. It really isn't directly related to oil temp.
I only flip out when the ECU shuts me down.

And for the record I did outrun a GT-R at NJMP by 0.4 seconds, granted he was on the stock tires and I was on slicks.
