That being said to answer Sennigen's question about exact temps when I was at AA speedway in Fontana in August ambient temps were 95 give or take. Without the cooler my oil temps were over 250 degrees by the end of a session. At Willow Springs in early September the temps were similar and my oil temps were 225 after a session. When we tested the in box file folder it lowered them another 10 degrees so 215 at the end of a session. I have attached a picture of the scoop and the hole in the trunk. The final scoop was just finished so I don't have data on it yet but my assumption is it will perform just as well as the in box file folder.

Great data -- and this was what I was envisioning -- I would think that the scoop would do one of two things -- elevate the need for the fans (at any reasonable speed), and/or add extra drag.

Otherwise I like it.
