Well I'd say the track day went GREAT. I had no issues whatsoever and was able to get in I think seven 20 minute sessions, I left a little early cause I was exhausted lol. But the car did great hot lapping for 20 minutes without needing to cool down. Granted ambient air temps were pretty cool, the morning started off around 35F and worked it's way up to a high of about 60F. But the cars temps stayed pretty consistent throughout the day even as it warmed up.
So some things that changed since my last track day: went down to a 5w30 oil from a 10w40, added verus hood vents, and greatly increased airflow in and out of the oil cooler. What I saw were oil temps that maxed out and stabilized around 230F, and coolant temps stabilizing around 210F. At redline, I was seeing 45-50psi of oil pressure. Still not great, but much better than the 20-30psi I was seeing when the temps were running 260F+ before.
Overall I'm very happy with how the day went. I'm super appreciative of you all for the advice and suggestions, and I think the car is now at a point where I don't need to do anything else to it. If my wallet ever feels a little heavy I could probably use some better brake pads and a nice set of coilovers lol. But for now the car doesn't NEED anything, and I'm going to keep on enjoying it. Hoping to squeeze in a few more track days next year
