As long as you are driving as hard as I am, you will over heat this thing, its just a matter of time. I'm ok, now, but by the end of a 30 minute session, I am already at 280F, especially if I'm paddle shifting, then it happens much sooner.
I would love to get a GTR, so my skill can continue to improve, but used car prices are rediculous right now. 70K for an '09? With that weak tranny?  Corvettes are similarly over priced too. |
I know you've invested a lot in OCs already but STETT's thermostat, while annoying as hell on the street, seems to work well at the track. For someone that was hitting 300F in 2010, I didn't see anything higher than 250-260 in 2011. I don't worry about oil anymore, just a myriad of other 335-related things.
I'm looking for a used track ride for next season as well, although my biggest challenge right now is arranging for storing/transporting a track-only car, we'll see.
