That's scary if it was casual driving. Was this 6MT or 7AT? We're you playing around in the higher revs, or just cruising in top gear?

We've had a few almost-hot days here in Houston lately, but nothing close to what it will be like by mid-summer. So far I don't think my oil temps will be an issue in the summer for casual driving, based on what I've seen. Not-so-casual driving, even on the streets, may prove to be an issue in the Houston summertime though. We'll see how it goes, it's hard to predict what truly hot weather will do.
