If you temperature is climbing that high at a steady 45 MPH you need to be looking at some other issue other than just fans.

As recommended in other threads you could try pulsing your heater or a continuous partial heat setting to reduce the temperature until you can get it repaired. Grill bock removed?
Yes I have an aftermarket gauge, I don't have any other way of knowing other then that sensor. I'll try it at 45MPH and see if it surpasses 210. Yes my grill block is removed. I hope my gauge isn't broken it costed me a lot to have the damn thing put in.
