What sort of temperature are you talking about? What's the coolant temp gauge reading at this point?

It's possible it's your going into the det zone when your temp goes up and the ecu is backing you off.
Have you had the fuelling checked for whatever spec you're running?

high running temps could be caused by a severly(sp?) worn engine or low coolant levels. dont want to worry you but id have a good look if i were you :wink:

When is the oil too warm? I hit 130 on a trackday before i realised it and pulled in. Is that way too excessive. I was as flat as flat could be though. What temp would most oils break-down at? Im running millers 10 - 60.
