I have been on some spirited drives and the temp did jump up to 225 pretty fast but didn't go higher, guess I'm lucky so far.

No offense but why would I drive 75 in 5th for 20 minutes straight, if I'm going to be going 75 for that long I would have shifted into 6th about 19 minutes ago that's what it's for. I guess I would if I wanted to test the temp. issue but I try not to push an issue unless it happens on its own.
