You can't beat on most showroom stock cars for any length of time without something overheating, and the ones you can cost a lot more than $30K- $40K.

Plenty of guys take the stock Z with the stock Z oil cooler to the track and run 2 - 3 good laps before the car gets too hot in general. On the street, I've never had a problem with my oil-cooler-equipped Z, but I did have my 2011 get up in the 250 range just from cruising in 5th on the highway. Maybe that oil cooler does something after all.

I'm more pissed about the fuel issue, no point in whining about an easy fix like an oil cooler when you fuel starve before you can even get the car hot enough to go into limp mode.
