I took my LoveFab NSX to the Le Mans/France circuit yesterday.
Last time on this track, I had managed 1'57" laps but had been limited in my efforts due to raising water temperature problems![Mad :mad: :mad:](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f621.png)
Not to worry, next time I'll use a racing radiator I thought to myself![Cool :cool: :cool:](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png)
I got the best one (?) available i.e. a Driving Ambition from SoS.
Back to the track and up to 80% of the load, the temperature doesn't move.
A couple of turns later, I start running with the different Porsches and...up goes the gauge!!!
This time, I wasn't even using my slicks but the Toyo R 888s that I came with.
Now what's the issue?
1) the water pump was changed with the cam belt less than 10000 kms ago.
2) the engine has never been opened and the car has only 85000 kms.
3) the radiator has been installed by a pro who was aware of my previous problems
4) the car has been converted to NSX-R bodywork
5) the cool air path to the radiator is partially blocked by the IC radiator
6) I rode back home for 450 kms without any issue
7) there is no water leak
I'll post a video later on where you can see the gauge climbing slowly but surely.
Very disappointing after having invested heavily to do the things right!
