I have run into this problem before on hard packed trails.
What I do on this type of trail condition is too go off to the side of the tail and spin some fresh snow up underneath the track, this will work well if there is uncut snow to the side of the trail. I do this frequently when I see this type of trail condition so the engine will not overheat.
If your red light comes on you may have to pull over, and shut down and pack your running boards with snow to help cool off.
Good luck, and don`t blow er up!!!
