Are driving a 997.1 or a 997.2? What oil temps are you seeing with the dash gauge?
I have 30-35 track days on my 997.2 S. ~30min sessions, I haven't had any issues with cooling. About 25% of those days are hot (90+) and humid. Water temp is fine (although I'm reading the inaccurate dash gauge). Oil gets up there on hot days, 260-270 but hasn't been an issue for the last 3 years.

Prior to adding the 3rd rad I saw track temps at 260 or a little higher and road temps at 220......now I see track temps at 240-245 and road temps at 200-205. So if my oil temps are lower now that also means my water temps are lower too. Another thing that may attribute to my lower temps is for street I run Gibbs DT40 and track Gibbs XP5.
