Steve,

Glad you survived. Remember...this is all typical of track events, they don't always go smoothly.

210 is not unrealistic running on a hot day. I normally run about that on a good b*tchslapping session.

I would rethink the thermostat change. 180 is the normal operating temps of most engines. I would definitely go the route of an aluminum radiator and also use Red Line's Water Wetter, that will bring the temps down a bit too. What type of fans are you running on the car as well, pushers or pullers, single or dual?

What were your oil temps? Do you run an oil cooler?

I think we are all ready for the Glen, just got done watching Tony Stewart win the race there (boo!!!!!!)

PS - I got your check, thanks. Should have the Ts by the end of the week hopefully.
