Not sure what the temp actually was yesterday, but the car was reading 100°+ on the gauge for all 3 sessions. I think ambient was more like low 90°s.
An update on the duct I made… it was an improvement over my previous setup, because I “only” hit a max of 250-255°F in my first two sessions with similar driving on my end, despite the hotter weather. HOWEVER, I did turn traction control off for my last session (first time driving on track without it), went ~4sec faster, and hit 260°. Limp mode kicked in hard. So the duct helped a bit but I still have temp issues on a hot day with multiple “push” laps in a 20min session. It’ll only get worse the faster I get.
Not sure if this is related.. but my oil temp gauge is a little jumpy at higher temps. It must be going bad. I’ll get that sensor replaced and hope I miraculously have lower oil temps haha
