......yes, I DO have in car video, but it isn't digital. I have a buddy who might be able to get it converted for me. I'm gonna try to post as much as I can. What I've learned is that oil temp and water temp are inextricably linked. At the previous event, when I didn't have the dry sump, the oil temps were well in excess of 230, and the water temp was about 215ish. Radiator and stuff were the same as what I ran at this race. At this race however, and even running 20mph's faster, the water temps never rose above 205, due to the fact that my oil temp peaked at 195. Basically, everything was sweet. It felt effin good to drive that thing that hard and have it respond so nicely. That was a fist-pumpin good trip I'm tellin' ya. I have also learned that there are other "airflow-management" tricks that can have a big effect on cooling. Next project, however: tranny and diff coolers. I put a gauge on the diff and monitored the temp. It climbed the entire race, and peaked at 310 degrees. Don't know yet if it's damaged. Must fix for higher speed....... RSR
