Second session I did ~20 minutes and the trans started shifting on its own and then I got the trans overheat warning.

It's a shame that the C7's are having this problem and my two ton modified ZL1 has zero issues.
For the most part, it's the A8's that are having high trans temp issues... I have tracked my M7 Z06 7x already and 3 of those times were on very hot & humid days. Pushed it consistently hard too lap after lap, session after session. No trans temp issues for me but I do know of 2 other A8 C7 Stingray owners who had high trans temp warnings and they weren't even pushing their cars as heavy as I did. Sucks, GM needs to address this...
