At COTA yesterday and I'm a bit confused about something. My radiator temp gauge never went more than 2/3 towards hot (just over half from what I recall). However oil temp was riding yellow every session. Guy I was racing with said this is calculated, not measured. Also gave me pointers on how to keep it from going into the red (which worked perfect btw). Race prep consisted of increasing water ratio in cooling system (not 100% water maybe around 35% coolant solution), water wetter, and lock open radiator shutters. Base GT cooling setup.
So do I need an oil cooler as well as a better radiator? Not sure how to get oil temp under control. Radiator temp seems fine.
