Will,

This is personal opinion, I have no testing to back up my opinion. It simply seems reasonable to me that a trans cooler is a good thing.

My thought is I am always look at being in the late rounds, in the final and if the last two or three runs come close together [which is to be expected] a cooler will be a very good thing.

Consider this chain of events, with a cooler anytime the engine is running fluid is passing through it. So, late rounds, things are happening quickly, on the return road, pulling up in the lanes, moving into the water box, fluid is flowing through the cooler.

That has to be some advantage over no cooling ability. I seems to me the fluid temp has potential to be more reasonable than without a cooler.
