Engine Oiling On Track

According to Albert Biermann:
Quote:
To have a car performing on a racetrack you need a very good oilpan system. It doesn’t look like a dry sump system, but it acts like a dry sump system. We have an extra suction pump where we take the oil out of the oilpan, especially in the front area under heavy braking. We make sure that we can go up to 1.4 g on the braking and still keep a very safe oil level. And in cornering we go to 1.2 g of lateral acceleration and the oil system is still robust and reliable.
I don't think this car will be able to handle racing slicks.
