I have no idea why a PIT Maneuver resistant radiator location would ever be desired outside of a get-a-way car. Planning on robbing banks perhaps?

Porsche has already been mentioned, I'll post some of the common and multiple oil cooler locations found on 911's similar to my own.

B&B Nose-mounted Oil Cooler Installation


911 RSR - 3.8L DME / 6-Speed (1973) Project Car Assembled By Patrick Motorsports


And these fit in the rear well near/part of the oil tank.

In addition, inter-coolers for turbos and superchargers are often stuffed into the rear wheel wells and the lower corner of the car. Not PIT proof, but Porsche does all sorts of racing that way and still manages to win quite a few races.
