Both trackdays this spring/summer. Outdoor temp has been around 20C. Car stays and works nicely and temp gauge stays middle point 90C in normal driving, even if I drive little bit harder, or stay on lights etc.

But on the track 5-8 laps and temp goes to 3/4 line or even higher. At that point if I slow down and keep revs around 2000-3000rpm and drive easy it took only 30s-1min to cool down to 90C. Fans seems to be working. I have SeatSport FMIC but Last year I didn't have that and I had same kind problem.

Any Ideas what's wrong? (VCDS and Oil temp was at the pit 110C and coolant was "OK" because it goes so fast down after hard driving). Is the problem Oil temp or something with coolant system??
