So your saying (for example) that if im driving down the road doing 80kms and the temp of the coolant in the top hose is (for example) 85 deg, 2 mins later im sitting at traffic lights for a few moments ( say 28 deg day) (no fan/fans)my coolant temp will still be 85 deg in the top hose.

no, and the reason it wont be is because the radiator has stopped functioning - the coolant exiting the bottom of the radiator is now hot as shit... you need to detect this drop in raditator function by measuring the temp in the bottom tank so that you can switch your fans appropriatly - thus maintaining adequate heat transfer.
