S55 Max Oil Temps seen at HPDE's/TT's

[SEAT TIME RULES]

As the message states..what have you all seen for oil temps during run sessions at various tracks. I'm especially curious on motors with a Stage 1 tune or higher on them.

THX in advance,

Stock: 220 tops but I haven't been on the track on a REAL HOT day yet.

Stock: Honestly didn't see my oil temp gauge move at all vs normal driving.

Pretty much this.

I didn't notice it jump outside of daily driving ranges by more than 5 F.

Are you guys running Sport + or Sport throttle setting?

I like the response of sport. I'll try sport + again this weekend at NJMP. Sport + will keep your oil temps under 200.

Until I get more experienced with DSC fully off I'd rather practice on Sport for the more gradual throttle response - good to hear you're topping out at about 220F. As I get more experienced with DSC fully off I'll gradually transition over to Sport + to get the lower temps on track.

When I had my '15 M3 - I would go Sport + throttle (with MDM) and my temps would stay in the lower 200's on hot sunny day in the upper 80's low 90's. I had a spin-out (lift-throttle oversteer) while going Sport + and DSC fully off on my '15 M3 - so gradually building my confidence back up with the '18 ZCP (which definitely goes to oversteer in a less sudden and more controlled manner - easier to correct). In addition to going ZCP, I've been training myself to stay on the throttle with oversteer - so gradually building my way back up again!

I noticed that I tend to oversteer more than I'd like if I'm in any other steering mode other than comfort. I spun out at Thunder earlier this month trying to figure out what the car's limits were with DSC OFF and the Nittos. I got used to the super sports a little bit so you forget how much grippier the nittos are.
