I was trying to figure out how the car could weigh 3800 lbs. Now I know. The subwoofer box! Those carbon fiber ones ought to do the trick...

Not denying anything. I've had high temp warning myself (once). If you really wanted to flog it under hot conditions and don't want to back down to give the car a break ever (i.e., racing), then the car needs better cooling.

I wouldn't call it an "over heating issue." There is know issue unless you ignore the warning and continue to flog it. Not sure why you would do that, since-- at a minimum-- it destroys your tranny fluid (which is super expensive).

Street tires also get greasy on all cars-- so back down or shred your tires and/or spin off track. These are street cars..... it's not that big of a deal.
