Oil Pressure

Started the cobra up yesterday morning, has`nt run for a week, and the oil pressure gauge took a few seconds to respond. Normally it rises to about 65lbs and when the engine is hot settles down at 50lbs per sq. in. at 1000 rpm. It first took a few seconds to move to 20lbs, stayed for a couple of seconds then moved up to 40lbs, then after a few more seconds rose to the usual 65lbs, and from then on works fine. Is there a problem with the gauge, or something more sinister?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
