Couple things:

1) Are you sure you weren't spinning your tires? If I suddenly floor it in 2nd, my tires light up.

2) What were your temps before trying to pass these guys? Your car's oil temp will NOT jump from 220 to 260 with a single aggressive acceleration. It takes some persistent, aggressive driving to get to 260.
