Oil temps?
We will see on the 9th since it will be my first track day in the Z. Freeway speeds only get me to 180. I don't think the sprayer will be effective at such a low temp when the thermostat switch is barely opening. Hard for me to test in stop and go traffic. Too many variables. Plus need some good wind speed for it to be effective. I have no expectation that this will be any kind of miracle cure, but it can't hurt and I thought it would be a fun DYI.

You have an oil cooler? If so, what size?

Also thinking of using a alcohol mix in the tank. It should evaporate faster and pull heat faster. Not sure about the fire hazard though.... |

The ice won't survive in the tank log enough to make a meaningful difference. It's too hot. Alcohol will work, but go 60/40 water to alcohol so it won't ignite.
