Same experience with my z in track, but it can reach 250F during session even in cooler weather, on the other hand, my dc5 stays at 195F on track but if I slowed down it get quickly cooler, without even installing any vents, but I installed the biggest cooler I can get. |
Agreed, for the most part. You really can't compare to other cars. I mean before I was tracking I drove it a couple day in Phoenix traffic and temps were 125 or so and even with the AC on it only hit 135. The engine bay on the Z just doesn't allow the motor to cool in extreme use. Me and my brother have run our Miata in back to back sessions in 90* without any heating issue but there is a ton of open space around that little four banger and we don't have an oil cooler.
