Ok, operating temp may be the same but it takes longer to get there. Please provide alternate reasons than the following two for this: the engine generates heat less rapidly than "normal" cars therefor it's less likely to overheat when pushed hard because the delta is smaller, and/or it's more efficient at dissipating heat thus taking longer to getting up to temp and being less likely to overheat when pushed. That is why I say the car "runs cooler", I'm not just talking about normal operating temp.
