first off i have gotten the engine hot so i believe you, second if i'm going over 50 and cruising i'd be in 6th not 5th you'd be suprised how much that effects your oil temps. when your cruising around try keeping your R's right around 2 not 3 thousand it will help considerably. i save the higher revs for when i'm having fun or racing it otherwise i stay low so that when i do want to screw around it's fairly cool. I can say that on a long road trip doing 73 on cruise control in 6th it stays right around 220
