First of all, I said 205 not 208. Second of all, the stock fans turn on around 200*F. I was told not to worry until 225*+. I don't think those temps are high...especially for a car that was in boost for 8/10th's of the course.
Greg, your not getting old on me are you???

In the third session at Birmingham, I hit 208* after about 4 laps, and decided that was time to cool down.
So, it's not as hot as some would think. But still...heading there quickly.
The new prototype *should* be in my hands shortly. It has been delayed due to an unforeseen accident at the radiator shop that is producing them. I'll have full pics of the install when it does arrive.
