[Shotimes] Running an ATX Car on the Track

I'm considering whether to sign up our '95 ATX for the track day at the
convention. One of the issues I recall hearing about at Thunderhill was ATX
fluid temps getting so high that the fluid was puked out of the tranny.

I"m game to put a tranny cooler on the car, but when I look in front of the
radiator it looks like Ford put one there for me already. Is that a standard
ATX piece of hardware and, if so, why the problem with fluid temps on track
days? Is it just not adequate?
