The oil cooling is not the big issue on a track car. Oil supply to the bearings is, and no added capacity oil pan, X51 baffles, dual scavenge pumps, etc., or even Accusump will solve it. Those are "peace of mind" fixes for street cars, but don't really solve the basic problem of oil control in the engine. The only true way to keep a tracked M96 or M97 alive is a dry sump system. You might be able to get away with some of the band aids for a while on some tracks, but sooner or later you will lose the bearings.
