I think I would generally agree with you but not for track driving.
There was a post earlier from Jake Raby where he indicated that he has seen engine oil temp on the track go as high as 250 degree and that's where the oil starts to fail. That's why I want to watch the oil temp.
I understand that the Boxster has already a sensor for oil temp, does anyone know how to tap into it (I don't mean the mechanical part but how to hook up a gauge so that it reads correctly).
