I was in a July 4 parade and my C8 2LT’s temp went up to around 220
for 30 mins. Of course I was revving her up and actually had the opportunity to burn out 4 times. I noticed a flutter in the drivetrain from time to time. Does it mean anything? After the parade all went back to normal and she’s driving normally with no flutter or overheating

I would venture to guess traction control was not completely turned off and was kicking in, At Ron Fellows, it was very impressive to see what traction control can do
