Under 200 your in the clear, between 200 and 215 is alright but is time to pay close attention to things, 215 on up is getting a little dangerous.

That's what i figured. I was at 170° -180° pulling an enclosed trailer up north a few weeks ago. I hit 200° for about two minutes after pulling into the wind and up a few long hills.
