But yeah, no worries all, most sport cars do this right? WRONG! This has NOT been blown out of proportion. Reaching 220 degrees alone is about 8 over what normal oils want to be. 212 or less is a good number on most cars. You know what... For the Nay-sayers like you... I'm going to make a video right now showing how REAL this problem is!!! It will be up in the "video/media gallery" as soon as I can upload to either youtube or streetfire.
