I have been very fortunate regarding oil starvation. My 986 was set up for BSX class with *moderate* R-comp tires and logged over 100 track days including 20 at AAA Speedway which is notorious for killing 986 motors. We added the X51 pan and checked/topped the oil before every run session. Zero oiling issues even while posting top times.
My current car is a 987.2 with 4 scavenge pumps and a vastly improved oiling system. Zero oiling issues after 2.5 years and 40 track days. So far, so good.
