Boiling coolant at the track.

Thank you for all the responses,

I don't there there is a leak in the radiator, under the car looks dry, but I do know they are prone to failure. I did install the Soho oil catch can/ coolant overflow just recently maybe that introduced a bubble, but driving to and from the track the temps looked very normal. I didn't notice any contamination at the top of the coolant tank or white smoke out the exhaust. But I'll have my mechanic do all the checks mentioned.

That sounds similar to my experience. It was fine under normal driving. Good luck and hopefully that is all it is.
