Oil Temp?

[ScottHughes]

Hi All,
During the Race in the GT's at Combe today my oil temp reached 97 degree's is this ok? or do I need to do some ducting mods to the side pods..

What weight oil are you using? that said anything between 90-120 is fine for W40 oil, 130+ is ok for W50

Car looked good on track, times were improving well.

Thanks Rob... 5th in Class, better than last year.. just need to stop the front splitter being pulled down at the front letting air in under the body which caused all sorts of vibration at the front over 120 MPH.. I thought the front wheels were going to fall off..

I use 15-50W Silkoleen so I assume that is ok then.. Nice.. One less thing to do before May the 4th

Just a thought when our clubsport did that it was finally traced to minute play in the front wheel bearing - new bearing completely cured it, and they are quite cheap, std fit from GPR
