IMO the less time the piston is slapping around the better.
The engine will not run any hotter because it gets up to temp sooner than it would if I have no thermostat and a disc with quarter sized hole in its place.

I try to go to the lanes at 100° and stage at 120° or less if possible. A thermostat and quickly warming engine just seems odd to me in a race engine.
