i talked to him a few weekends ago about it and he said definitely dont push the car before about 180 (and that's with an oil cooler*)
* For anybody unfamiliar, when you install an oil cooler the temperature reading is after the oil passes through the cooler but before it goes in the engine. This means the actual temperature of the oil in the engine is probably closer to 190/200. So for us without oil coolers I would wait maybe a little more than 180.
