I was recently reading on corvette forums on how track guys have found that by retrofitting an aftermarket oil pressure sensor they have been able to capture momentary losses in oil pressure the factory computer was not. Something about 1.4g+ for over 4 seconds and the pickup runs dry. I don't think the oiling system on any street car is setup for that type of abuse. N5x Dry sump would be nice for an enthusiast if it were affordable. Bimmerworld uses a dry sump on their race e9x 328i's or maybe it's a VAC product... I don't recall.
