Default overheating at the track.....help!

My car is overheating whenever i road race it. It doesn't over heat badly because if i turn on the heat, it will run fine for the day. But i have already mixed the coolent to be 30/70 and the thermostat has already been replaced. Is there anything else i should look into besides that? I am also running a delsol dual core rad. It didn't do this before and just started for the past 2 lapping days. Thanks.

Have you put any additives in the radiator to help with cooling? I think there are a couple of different ones to use but I can't remember the name of them. Anyways, they can make a difference when you're running on the track.

Have you tried...
-Water Wetter? I think redline makes it its only like 6 bucks.
-A higher pressure radiator cap 20bucks.
-Spoon (for example) makes a radiator fan switch that activates at a lower temp 70bucks.

All of these together would cost under 100bucks and could solve your problem if it isint too extreem.
