Best in show went to an 81 vw glf that had a complete swap from 05? R32. Engine was swapped and immaculate. Entire interior was swapped flawlessly. It was pretty impressive. Not something you see very often.

I think the cooler oil temps are keeping the coolant temps down as well. Highway cruising of coolant temps were 175*, which is much lower than my boosted s2k (195-200*)

I'm interested to see what temperatures I'll see on track. However, I would feel no worry over tracking in hot hot temperatures.

I'll need to fashion something like what George has for street driving. I think 150 (oil) is just too low for street driving.

In other news I entered the MachV charity car show today and took this home.

Woah you triple stacked the oil filter? Keep an eye on that for leaks.

I know right
I'm fabbing up an anti-losening system for the filter.
