Tuning shouldn't be an issue. One of the best LS tuners in the U.S. (Matt @ FSP) tuned the car. He tuned it with road course action in mind. I've been running the same tune for all my road course events, including last summer. The reason why it didn't overheat last summer but did now is because A) a pro driver was pushing it and B) I'm staying out longer and pushing the car harder. If anyone else tuned the car I would investigate the tune some. However I suspect my biggest issue now is stock oil cooler & stock radiator trying to cool a car that has 100+ rwhp from stock.
