That is a little high , i would expect 120-130deg, what was the situation ? if it was at the drags slipping the clutch off the line would add a lot of heat quickly..

That was 156 water temp shown on guage but it was jumping all over te place. The thing that really concerned me was the 6psi oil pressure at idle.

I called Leonard from the track last night at 8pm and was told to bring it over now so he could check it out, what a bloke. A strip down discovered a stuck thermostat. I left at 11pm, Leonard is going to drop the sump today to see if there was any damage from both last nights little episode and my sump smahing hit at Willowbank.
