I have no doubt that if I had done two consecutive laps my car would have surpassed the 280F mark.

What was the ambient temperature that day?

I have my first Auto-X in this car on Saturday, ambient is expected to be around 60F. We run a 130-140 second course typically.

It was 70F & Rainy on Saturday
and about 74F on Sunday. Honestly I think it could of been -20F and it would still heat up like that. The temps climbed really fast.

absolutely unbelievable. So we know that the problem is in 100% of the production cars. I know if we create enough awareness Nissan will have to fix the problem....but since we only represent a spec of dust from the entire 370 population, its difficult..

This is similiar to Nissan GTR issues/lies. The only time that the GTR can beat a 911 Turbo is when they use the launch control feature. Which has lead to many transmission issues and Nissan has it in the manual/warranty if you use this feature it voids the warranty. Go to the GTR websites if you do not beleave me. That is why I am leary of buying a Nissan even though I love the 370. I don't trust them.
