Run out of oil?
Is it possible with a GS1100e to pump the sump dry? At the track last week, oil light came on solid at the traps. Oil was between the lines on the sight glass. I added a 1/2 quart and didn't see it again. So is it possible to pump the sump dry in a quarter mile with 750 oil pump gears?sigpic

Some turn the oil pick up tubes to the rear so at launch you have plenty of oil, but if you run low oil and hard on the brakes then maybe ?
I had one pressure switch that would flicker until I swapped it out but the only way to know for sure is to use a pressure gage.1166cc 1/8 ET 6.09@111.88
