20 minute sessions is typical, sometimes 30 minutes. You're always backing off here and there during the session but the heat just accumulates and by the 15 minute mark it can become too much if it is 90+ degrees ambient.
One of the problems I found is that placing a large oil cooler in front of the radiator reduces airflow to the radiator and creates a high pressure zone that reduces the airflow to both the radiator and the oil cooler. An alternative would be to place 2 smaller oil coolers off to each side in front of each wheel, but that is a lot of oil hose to run and requires some custom fabrication for mounting.
