I'm not going to argue with you guys. But, that chart has nothing to do with road racing. (note the ZL1 plot starts at 110 at the start of the dyno pull) Show me IAT data log on the track. I've seen the LSA on engine dyno running rated power all day. As long at the coolant flow to the manifold coolers stays cool, IAT won't get out of control.
Also, I will add that heat soak and elevated IAT are not always the same thing. The engine might have an elevated IAT at rated power to some degree no matter what. But that is not necessarily heat soak.
