Went through the track vids from last year to look for patterns, I think you're right, coolant seems to hit the threshold first usually (before oil).

Notice in the 2nd limp mode in this video how the engine light did not come on until about 27 secs after I lost power...

And my personal best (worst?) this year, limp mode within 4 laps/46F Ambient!
Sorry, no in-car video, forgot to press record in that session.

Going back next week with a STETT oil cooler and Mocool in the radiator. Will run 2 sessions with heat on and 2 with heat off and record differences. Ambient in the high-50s.
