I've seen daily oil temps at 220-240F on the gauge for years now. On the street.

On the track, I hit 280F in less than two laps (~4 min)
Thank you for the info. I wonder why my 2009 stock never hit 280F on the track though. Maybe you're way more of a bada$$ then me on the track lol. Again, thank you for a solid answer. I'll post my temps and times when the day comes.

(My 2012 is my second Z) just to clarify why i would be referring to a different Z.

I am pretty comfortable in the Z but by no means am I a bad a$$

This was also June in Texas. It was probably close to 100F temps that day, so the track would have been even hotter.

Got it. Ya i usually track here in the winter time, high of 70-75. Maybe that had something to do with it. I have taken my current Z to the track once but it was POURING rain so i pushed the car about 80% threshold... never went above 260F...so we'll see this time around with the upgrades on a dry day.
