Accusump haha. I'd put one on a car that might ever see the track unless the car was already dry sumped or something. Also since I take turns fast to save fuel, preventing accidental oil starvation is also possibly a good idea (it happens on some cars stock!).

Porsche has an electric primary oil pump I think, which prelubricates the engine before start up. Not sure how much it helps, it seems like bores usually oval out before bearings go since they are not well lubricated compared to the rest of the engine.
