Default Need some temp input

What I am looking for is guys that A-Tap log/record there track runs. The info in particular that I am looking for is what temp is your motor on the starting line and then the temp when you go threw the traps at the end of the run. For example, I started recording this info today, and I am gaining exactly 7 degrees throughout the whole run i.e. starting line temp 182 end 189. Any help would be appreciated!
Joe.

Sorry Joel, I was asking whats your average starting line temp to end run temp, i.e. you pull your car up to the starting line and you are at 187 when you are done your run, whats your trap temp?
Thanks! Joe.

Looking at the few Autotap logs where I recorded water temps,I see only 4-6 degrees increase, no matter if ambient is high 70s or low 90s.
These are not "at the track", but back-road runs from 0-110 or so.
Also the starting temps varied from high 180s to low-190s depending on conditions

Thanks Joel! sorry if I misunderstood, The temp split that I mentioned above is with stock fan settings and a stock 99 stat, so far for the most part, it looks like I am right on the mark I was looking for. I would like more repliers though to get more of an average. Thanks GWJ.
