Absolutely you will need an oil cooler. Unless you are planning for a short track session.

After three laps at COTA, my 2011 had oil temps over 250F. After a 15 min break and then three more laps, I had temps around 290F. This wasn't a track day per se, and I was prepared to stop when the car let me know it was done for the day.
