So I don't have a good engineering answer for- what is to low a temp- don't think it is peculiar to a gt6- but generally try to maintain 200-240 F by covering part of the cooler with tape.
Toyos- I've had best success when they are about 35-36 psi hot. They pick up about 4-5 psi from cold.  The hot emp is consistent with Toyo recommendations

Our GT6 is ready for it's first track day. We've added an octopus oil system,  3 qt accusump ,a larger scirocco rad with a 16 lb cap and a oil cooler. I've read we need to maintain a minimum oil temp so we don't damage the motor. What should the minimum temp be for racing?  Also what tire pressures do u run with 
Toyo r888's?


Thanks
Dave and Alex
