Warning: Oil Pump Failure

Well guys, it seems the oil pump in our cars does not apperciate us drag racing the car. I had broken an axle during one of my runs and later took a look at the car to only realize that the oil pump had also given out. The reason I believe for my failure was wheel hop but would probably happen to anyone trying to drag race the car. It's really time to look into a complete dry sump setups or something close. I think this is related to the front balance shaft (who knows though, I only really experinced this in honda's). I will be removing them next... I noticed that Al was the only guy that I could find that posted about a failure. I guess I'm the second...
