For what you are describing, a cooler shouldn't be necessary. As long as you keep your oil temp below 240-250 F you will be OK. Most oils nowadays are good up to ~300, short-term, but they break down faster at higher temps. If you spend much time above 240, you may want to change your oil a little more often.
