Hey DR_

I'm also in TX (Dallas) and planning on doing driver's edge and a few events in 2014. I'm looking at oil coolers now and based on your experience if you were me starting from scratch, would you go with a 34 row or a 25 row? I should note that I'm a novice so probably won't be pushing it too terribly hard, but it's something I'd like to do 3-4 times a year each year.

Based on the above it looks like you got pretty high temps even with a 25, so I thought it was worth asking if the 34 would make more sense. Thanks in advance for your help!
