as above, anyone know of any cheap electric water pumps?

im wanting to go for a leccy water pump, to take drag off the engine, and so when i switch it off after coming off track, it keeps water circulating, through the rad, electric fan of course, thus cooling the engine, rather than the temperature going up to over 110 celcius, normally goes to 120, when i switch it off after a session, due to no water circulation. it normally sits at about 95 on track.

Shouldn't the thermostat take care of that?

Keep the mechnical pump and fit a small electric shunt pump for heat soak when you shut the engine off
