I went to the track the other day and while sitting in the long line (after my first run, consider it "traffic") my car got up to 240* had to open the hood and push. It normally doesnt get any hotter than 220* (we have no traffic here) and on the thruway its like 180. I have a 70/30 water/antifreeze mix, radiator is clean, it has a 180* stat and fan swith is like a 200*. It has dual fans. Only the DS fan comes on, the PS fan never comes on even if i put the ac switch on (ac is deleted). So im thinking i need to wire up that PS fan to the ignition. thoughts?

 

The track always kills your car. even good daily drivers end up sitting on the side having been pushed out of the way.

After a few runs you will overheat, get a stronger fan and better radiator if your gonna race a lot.

You can't call it "traffic" you don't go full bore down to a dead stop ?+ times in a short period of time. in jersey we go from 80mph down to dead stop to look at the crashed cars infront of us, and sit there for a long time, but still not as high a demand.

Thats my $0.02

 

just like you guys to know (i hate finding unfinished threads) that I rigged a switch to turn on the 2nd fan if it gets hot and it NEVER gets hot now
