This was on a very tight road mostly second with a tiny bit of third so not much airflow, and a decent incline. Another place I had issues with temps occasionally was a fairly high-speed road but also uphill so I was practically full throttle between 5-7k rpm in 3rd and 4th for 4 minutes straight but I only went into limp mode from back to back runs. Also, I'm not sure if it was an issue with the car since I had an auto 128i before I got my manual one, and both of them experienced similar overheating issues. Both cars also enjoyed drinking oil at a rate of 1 quart every 2k miles so most of the time the car was down at least having a quart of oil which reduced the thermal capacity. After installing the oil cooler though, I haven't had any issues.
