I tend to wait atleast a good 30-45 min between runs with the engine off hood open and platic top off the engine so that it cools down plenty well before my next run. I've seen no oil temp problems thus far or any other issues for that matter. It's a great straight track car if your smart about it!
You should probably leave the engine running for 5-10 minutes to ensure that it cools down evenly and you don't get hot spots. Remember the oil is cooled by the water so if neither is circulating it's not going to cool as well. It's probably not that big a deal at the strip as you're only flat out for a few seconds.
