Joeyz10 thanks for the question. Once the oil temp starts getting close to 250 under normal driving conditions this is abnormal. On the track mine hit 300. What's even more alarming is the outside temps where only about 55 degree fahrenheit.

What you will notice happening is your rpms start becoming restricted by the ecu in some sort of safe mode. First to 6500 rpms then down to about 3500 rpms.

I also want to add that the car can begin to cool itself if you can keep the revs as low as possible and cruise.
