Talking to some track dudes some have said they gave up driving T4s due to loosing to much oil on the track and no matter how big the Acusump was, they still burned out bearings. What is your solution to this problem? THNX (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Assuming you already have an adequate oil cooler plumbed up adding a dry sump may not cost as much as you think. A dry sump oil pump is available that fits in the stock location (alternate engine mounting bracket must be made. I have done this on the house F-Prod car for solid mounts) Used oil tanks can be had on e-bay for cheap. If the car is a dd that is occasionally ax, then an accusump is the way to go. If a dedicated track and/or ax car, I would go dry sump. It can be done for less than $500.00
