I havent got an oil cooler (yet) and I've only had issues with limp mode towards the end of the day, for the 15min+ sessions at wakefield. Eastern creek was a little worse as they ran longer sessions and it has longer straights where you're flat out.

Even then one cooldown lap every 2-3 laps seemed to bring it down to acceptable levels.
Thanks for the heads up mate, It's not wakefield, starts with M, really bad with these things sorry...

Really good to hear that taking it easy on a lap will significantly help things...

so what temp was it averaging for the day and what oil did you put in it?
