I did it tonight, after a few tries. I had been parked for a while, so I started out at 75C. After driving for like 20 Mins, the oil temps were at 239F, while the water temps were at 98C, or 208F! I'm going to keep monitoring it, and see where I get up to cruising on the highway. I will be at the track in two weeks, but I was wondering if one of you track guys can read your water temps, and let us know what it hovers at, while you are racing. Also if you guys try this, and it doesn't work, just Let me know, and I'll guide you guys through it. Its confusing at first, but once you get it, its a breeze.
Glad to see it worked for you, very important info to have! I tried it a while ago and couldn't get this to work, apparently I was doing something wrong, I'll try again tonight.
