lolwat?


if you have no gauge and limp mode, you'll know because of limp mode

if you have no gauge and no limp mode, you'll know because people would be blowing their engines at the track.

Yes we will know because of limp mode and people blowing up their engines at the track, but how many people actually goes to the track? I've heard stories of other cars going into limp mode and having engine failure because of high oil temps. Our cars are not the only ones with that problem. That's what I was trying to point out.

The oil temp issue is blown way out of hand in our community because we have a gauge. Don't misunderstand me though, it is still a problem especially for track use.
