When my water is up to around ~190f the oil temp is anywhere from 140-160f and this is in Florida winter. It takes at least 6-10 miles before the oil is just getting up to around 200 degrees.

Please cite some sources for this. I have never once heard or seen of this happening(to a street car), just a lot of internet parroting.
