    Hello all!

    What process do you guys use to warm up your cars? It seems to take an age to get any sensible oil temp?

    Alongside that, what oil and coolant temps would you consider high enough for full load usage? What would be expected temps at the end of a track session and what would be the maximum allowable temps before backing off or conducting a cool down lap?

    Thankyou in advance, id love to have some tried and tested figures to work to!

    Any insight on this from any of you lads that run your 360s on the race track?

    How do you warm up the engine oil? It seems to take ages when driving gently, or do you sit them idling until they hit x oil temp? If so what is that x?

    I like to see circa 80+ degrees C oil temp before doing a full load pull, but it seems to take forever (like 40 minutes).

    thanks in advance for any input!
