Default Is my C7 trans temp normal?

I have a 2015 C7 A8 z51. Edelbrock blower and arh headers. Lately I been noticing my trans temp would hang around 190 when cruising. After one hit it would go to 210 and hang there for a long time. Today, I did about 4 40-100 hit and temp jump to 250 but came back down to 210 very quickly.

I ask my tuner to look at the trans cooler and he said he didn't see anything wrong with it but he also told me that the temp shouldn't be above 200.

Is this normal?

Yes it is the 16s and up have an additional trans cooler. Trans is good to 270 although the cooler the better. My 16 runs about 130 most of the time on track up to about 250 after a 30 min session
