It won't go too high doing the 60-130 as there is enuf airflow at those speeds to haul away the heat from under the tight cowl. It's when you are down low and slow under M shifting with stop and go, hard acceleration with no high speed to cool things off..
Hopefully, you won't ever get bugs/dirt in your rad later on as the car is entirely dependent on the radiator working flat out to get rid of the heat.. even then it floats, so it's already at 100%+ for heat rejection and can't keep the design temp of 240 brand new...
