I've not had a single issue with my A10 heat soaking and ran 6, 20m sessions at Autobahn CC. Left in auto mode and running 2:54 laps.

3.56mi and fairly technical track. So it doesn't stay up in speed for very long periods of triple digits to get a ton of cooling flow.

I would be surprised if you could overheat the trans on a public back road in that time unless you were just sitting in traffic and lot moving a lot. Just too many variables to account for that would prevent you from running that constantly without slowing, stopping of having to back off.

Contrary to the anti auto naysayers, it's a great transmission. Like anything man made, it's not perfect, but it's hardly an instant overheat like some like to claim.
