VW / Audi @ Castle Combe
chungster:
That is a good point as its in for oil change and service next week!
It dropped back to the 90's quite fast after finishing the session but today was the highest I've seen to date whilst out on track.
Maybe I shud start putting in 6 month oil changes :happy2:

Im getting an oil cooler fitted to mine for peice of mind, lus i dont like to come into the pits until it drops below 100degrees which normally takes about 3 cool down laps at least :fighting:

My oils done every 5k on the road and now after every track day. 3 laps to cool the oil was at Mallory Sy, was quite short. Took a while to cool at idle though too eh.
Sounds like a great day!
Hedge:
I think despite the weather it was a good day.
Sorry I bailed early guys but I was like the walking dead. :sad1:

But mallory was cold and wet. Rockingham ttok over 3 because it was red hot both times, dry and alot longer than mallory!!! Never got over 125 at Mallory anyway :wink:
Im not changing every trackday, thats OTT i think. An oil cooler to keep temps around 90-100degrees then only 1 lap for a cool down. Much better, and no need rto change the oil because its not got to hot.

Ill be going next year. Got some catching up to do, thats for sure
