Opened trunk and noticed water on the upper end and around the area of the tank. Lost a fair amount of water. This happened once before but at a much smaller scale - which is what prompted me to change the cap. Hasn't happened in over a year though.
Could this be the valve that is in on top of the tank? Any idea what caused it? I haven't looked for cracks or leaks - but I did fill it and there wasn't any water coming out. Coolant temp was around 192 when it happened.
Any help would be appreciated.

Once you come off full power & slow down hopefully you get a cool down lap, when you come into the pits allow the car to idle for a minute or two before shutting off the engine.
