Temp Gauge Readings

I know this subject has been beaten to death, but I need to ask anyway. I took the Pantera out tonight for a quick roadtest after installing a half shaft. The temp gauge climb nearly to the red as I arrived back home after a 20 minute run. When I got back in the garage, I checked to see if the fans were running, they both were. I carefully put my hand on the top of the raditor, and it was not really that hot at all! Is the stock temp gauge really THAT inaccurate? No fluid overboiled, the engine itself seemed normal. I guess I need to get a mechanical gauge and go by that instead.
