Dry Sumps have many advantages over a "WET" Oil system.
Very Fast Street Car with today's Dry Sumps can live on the street for a long time.
Porsche Cayenne has one stock, Ford GT Has one stock, (did not say Mustang).
Marty ran one in 1996 (FOR A REASON).
You really have to "cover all of the bases", not just slap some turbos on a engine and call it good if you are running quick times in drag racing. Road Race cars, (except the street type stuff or Hobby stuff) typically run a dry sump for better oil control and also for SAFETY.
The basic systems should be covered before the other parts are added or at least designed into the basic package FIRST. Not as a afterthought when the stuff you used does not work. Then you are just doing "DO-OVERS"
Bob and Frank did a killer Dry Sump system for a Pontiac (VERY PROFESSIONAL DEAL) THEY MAYBE SOLD A HANDFUL OF THE SYSTEMS TOTAL). Sad.
