How many of you track guys with CA,SR KA-T or other boosted engines not running a thermostat? How many of you are? What your temps like tracking and on the street? Please include what rad your using, fan (when it enguaged) etc.

Thank you Nate

I did not have a thermostat last summer and it ran alright.  
i have a single 16" 1200CFM fan on a Koyo Rad.

when they weather started to get cold it was causing a few problems even with the fan off. the temp would get WAY too low. I say idf you are going to street most of the time get one. I am going to be picking up another one this year

Just take it out and put it back in when it gets cooler.

You could always just put a piece of cardboard infront of the rad when it gets colder out :lol:
