I've been thinking about this for a long time and only found one partial thread on it. It seems to me that an "intercooler style" mister could be very beneficial on the track to help control oil and head temps.
While I had no head temp issues at Willow, my oil temps did rise to the point I pulled off. I was thinking a simple mister introducing water mist in to the fan or directly above the oil cooler could be a trick way to deal with temp spikes. Anybody done this before? -Aaron |
