First time at the track with the E55..

95 degrees outside and 122 degrees on the track..
60' 1.897
1/8 mile 8.269 @ 84.72
1/4 mile 12.884 @ 107.48

Sound normal for the track conditions? Its a bone stock E55 w/ 48,000 miles on her.. if not, any routine maintenance i need to look at? I know i probably need a johnson pump and heat exchanger.. im sure the heat was pulling plenty of timing..

Middle Georgia.. Its extremely hot out here... Is there a way to jump the intercooler pump while at the track? So the pump runs while the car is off? We do this all the time with the lightnings and it helps cool off the intercooler while in the pits..

should be a way. my buddy did it on his s/c'd C55. though i think he did it when his key was in the accessory or the next position.
