Trackday oil temps for SS

NCSD · 01-13-2017, 04:16 PM

Now that the cars have been out for a while, what oil temps are your cars running at for trackdays?

What temp range is considered normal?

I consistently get 230-240F. The oil temp gauge on the dash is not accurate. Used OBD2 to take temp.

It might help if you indicated what conditions you are running under: your run times, the outside temperature, what oil you are running, etc. Recommended oils for tracking should be able to handle higher oil temperatures (e.g. 300 degrees).
