Dont see it bieng a hassle unless you leave your car standing static on the hot surface for a long time.
The track temp can be 60 deg/c but wont lend to the pack being teh same temp.
As for ambient temp that is static as well when the car is running there is air flowing around the pack.
I have run lipo since June last year and we are fortunate we dont have teh cold temps to wrry about like or cold climate counterparts.
NO need for battery warmers, heating pads etc... since we have a fairly moderate to warm climate.

So dont worry you wont have any issues with it unless you negligent with your charging and discharging.
