Many times I have spoken to Pro racing engineers from Porsche Motorsport/Alex Job.. nobody is seeing a problem. The "myth" started when Porsche had issues at Daytona IN THE BANKING of the track. Ever been to Daytona? You can barely walk up the track in the banking. You'd understand quickly, how you could have issues in a NON dry sump oiling system

That's great to know. Unfortunately, it's a myth that is perpetuated by Porsche as it is in the owner's manual. That's where I heard about it at least.
