Safe oil temperature

Hi all,

Whats the common oil temps you guys see on track? Mine almost never climbs over the center marking (210F) on the street but climbs to ~230 after 1 lap and stays just under the three quarter marking (~250) after. Is this a safe level and is the factory gauge even accurate at all? I did not note any warning lights coming on for water temp. My car is entirely stock. Thks.
