After reading the most current discussion on various methods of controlling potential oil starvation issues on the track, it seems there is varied opinion on the value of some of the deep sump systems.

What I am trying to decide this season is whether or not to add a sump extension. My car is an 02 S, that is primarily street driven. I will do probably 3-5 HPDE days this season and run a fairly fast pace with Max Performance spec’ed street tires. The question is, is it worthwhile at this stage to add a deep sump setup, or just run it as is and make sure my oil levels are good etc?
