Message up the suspension to a point where you could drive the car at a level where the oil pan wasnt cutting it, or did you "gangload" it all at once and kill the motor the first time out?

How much track experience do you have? A regular track rat or serious track day attender or just casual?

More details appreciated. I realize there is no formula for predicting when & where oil starvation will happen but I have been to many track days, a handful with a good number of Z32's equipped across the spectrum with drivers of all skill levels, and have not seen anyone kill their motor. I am not saying it doesn't or can't happen. I am just saying I dont think it is the huge boogey man that many people think it is if you are driving a Z modded more for street driving and do not possess even a semi-professional driving ability level.

So I'd like to hear your story because I'd be lying if I said it didnt linger in the back of my mind the last few times I went out to a track day.

property and you will be hailed by the president for your keen social conscience. But call people who blow up, behead, and mutilate, “savage” —
and polite society will find you offensive."
