My friend, who is a very good and fast driver, had one and I witnessed heat soak on numerous occasions in his. He no longer has it because of all of the problems, and replaced it with a GT4 (and also just got a ZCP M3).
Btw, you may not recall, but the heat issues existed long before the auto tranny was made available on the C7 Z06. There are long threads about it on corvetteforums, and people still have issues.
The car is a beast, but it does have issues, and eats consumables at an alarming rate.

At our local track Roebling Road it does not have problems , how about that . He did a 1:15.x lap there as well , which is faster than just about anything there I have ever seen , including full on race cars , so he is an excellent driver . He is always in PTM race so isn't using the TC as crutch which does increase heat because of the timing changes so that likely is at play for a lot of people who have had issues.
