Congrats to the OP for a memorable 1st track experience. It sounds like you came with a lot more experience than most. 5 secs slower than an instructor in a car he's probably going 8/10ths in (cuz he doesn't know your car) is not shabby at all.
I really liked the fact that you didn't go in as one of the 'cocky' types. Big thumbs up for you.

Yes, OEM oil cooler is ok for first few track events, unless you sign up for a summer 90-100F event. Then, it might be hit and miss. But chances are you won't be pushing your car that hard the 1st day. The OP was one of the rare few who knew his car really well, so his oil temps probably got a lot higher than most 1st timers. Still, he didn't overheat either. Sign up and have fun!
