I only did a Hyperdrive, one HPDE-1 type session for about 13 laps and my oil temperature was pegged at 260 ... and this was my first time ever on the track ... they say I had fuel starvation towards the end, I don't doubt that, but I thought for sure it was limp mode on account of the oil temperature. In any event, I am not going back on the track until I get the oil cooler and some brake ducting installed ... I was just on stock (non-sport) brakes and was babying the car and still hit 260 in oil temperature. It would be no fun to pay money for the whole weekend, and not get to "drive fast" the whole weekend because you exceeded the car's limitations. It's very easy to do with no oil cooler and crappy non-cooled brakes.
