But I dont see the reason to buy one just cause you hit the track a couple of time. Its just another place to check for leaks anyway.
Plus the car wont really let you hurt it. It will start retarding things if the temps go too north of 300*F.

Except the oil pressure north of 240 is well out of manufacturer specification, that should realistically be the point you look at oil coolers. A novice can easily get there within a few laps on a stock fa20.
