Unhappy why's it getting hot

After some spirited driving my 95 ra started to get hot and just taking it easy the temp would not come down. when i let it cool down the header tank was empty but it had overflowed out of the expansion tank? It's not the first time this has happened but drive it steady it's fine but give it some right foot and it's drop's water. I am starting to think maybe head gasket,has anybody any other idea's

Head gasket no question. Is this the RA that went at the track day?
