Default Radiator for better cooling, Road Race

I know this isn't a question regarding suspension or brakes but I figured this will be the most knowledgeable section to ask this question.

What are you road race guys running for aftermarket radiators to help keep your coolant temps way down?

I noticed last time my coolant temps where pretty high and I would like to keep those temps down.

ideas?

I sell Be Cool Direct fit, all aluminum radiators. I have a customer in Colorado who autoxes and also open tracks his car. Up there it's harder to keep cars cool in the thinner air, so keep that in mind.

Popped in a Be Cool Rad, which is right @ $500, and the temps came way down. Also more durable since the plastic end tanks don't get old, and brittle. So in addition to the aluminum tanks which help shed heat, the 3" thick dual-pass core knocks temps way down...

In stock, ready to ship if you want one. The price above is for a unit without a trans cooler (for an stick car, which the OP has). There is a version for auto cars as well, but it's more expensive due to the addition of the tranny cooler.
