Can you overheat your power steering system?
At the last track event I noticed that I had power steering fluid leaking in the engine bay after a session of hard turning.
Can these systems overheat and leak OR do I have a issue that I don't know about.

I don't know about overheating, but they definitely can leak. Mine was dripping right onto the exhaust and creating some scary looking clouds of white smoke.
 Replaced the hose and all was well again.
