Narrative:

Upon arriving at aircraft, completed preflight duties. Aircraft and gpu were operating normally. Started #2 engine with normal operational procedures. During start, internal turbine temperature (itt) rapidly increased to exceed temperature limitation. Engine was shut down with company procedures being followed. Maintenance was notified and maintenance entry was placed in aircraft maintenance log. Aircraft was taken OTS for repairs. Contributing factors: outside temperature was approximately 100 degrees, poor performance from gpu, slow acceleration on engine.
