V6 Oil Pressure (M6)

Good Morning!

This is the first 6 speed sports car I have owned over the years so things are still new to me. As I am going threw the gears I notice that as the RPM gets in the range of 3k-3.5k the oil pressure gauge starts to peak out. It doesn't completely hit 70psi but it's pretty darn close. As I shift into the next gear the psi will drop and so on and so on threw all the gears.
I have had the car about two weeks now and it has a little over 500 miles.

Should I be concerned or am I overly concerned already?
