Seems that way... also extreme conditions or really good driver is the key. I saw it in July with a pro driver in the seat. With the car's owner no issue.

Following along as this is an interesting read. Plan on doing plenty of track days here in Texas this summer and will want to keep an eye on this. Would having your TCM tuned help alleviate this issue?

My M6 ZLE will see all the track time and even if I did track the A10 Panther I doubt I would see it either.
Possibly what the OP mentioned about overfill had something to do with it. I've never seen a definitive cause yet. |

I don't think GM knows either. My dealer opened a technical case with GM about it, and since then they have not returned my calls.

It is transmission fluid level related. It has nothing to do with oil temperature. You can set the fluid level by coming off track hot and then immediately jacking the car up in the pits. Have a friend to speed things up. Do not get under the car without jack stands and gloves. Have a drain pan and remove the single bolt on the bottom of the pan with the car running. Anticipate a few ounces to a quart of fluid to come out.
If this doesn't fix the problem: 1. Ensure that the top and bottom coolant reservoirs are properly filled. Burp the cooling system. 2. Check if the transmission cooler is plugged with rocks or debris. 3. Replace the factory thermostat with a factory replacement or Katech 174 deg. (I had a factory t-stat fail)

The transmission got its own cooling with a single radiator. Its the one laying horizontal and I believe it does not have a thermostat. No clue if it can get vented tho nor if it's seperated of the fluid in the pan.

It just seems to be hitting a limit where heat is concerned. It does suck for anyone that can hit those limits.

I am not the one that seemed to have solved this. Member TravisLambert seemed to have solved this by substituting the auxillary blower heat exchanger with a dedicated engine oil cooler (C&R, I think). He left the OEM engine oil cooler (off the side of the oil pan) in-line (and think he was going to divorce it completely later and see if there was further improvement in temperatures), and did have upgraded blower/engine/auxillary engine heat exchangers (which his data showed almost no improvement) but after removing the engine oil load, all temperatures in that cooling circuit dropped considerably, and he observed no ill side effects of track use. He's got a big thread on it. I think he was mod'd with a 2650, and is an M6, so it's a little different, but might be useful. I didn't notice mod's but that could play a factor, too, if so. OP: I hope you find the solution
