I haven't gotten my oil cooler yet as I figured my first run would be pretty tame but the last two sessions I was pushing the car pretty hard and getting up over 130-140 C so I would just drop it into fourth or fifth on the straight to try and cool it down. I didn't care about lap times since I was just learning to drive and I just wanted to know how to take the lines work on my vision, etc - anyone can stomp on it in the straight. We went into limp mode after about ten laps of driving the car hard with the instructor. I was pretty close myself on the last two runs but I went easy on the straights to keep it under 140C. I've been talking to Dean at Stillen about getting a cooler and I'm trying to decide on the standard or the new bigger cooler they are coming out with.
