Ive done loads of trackdays in my old Mk and there is no need for a dry sump system.
I fitted an AB Performance billett sump to replace the bike sump on 1400zzr and i had no problems at all....

I have 2 Furore's with bog standard ZZR1400 engines doing regular trackdays in Germany, obviously the engine is the same way round as the bike in our car, but they've never had ANY engine issues at all in around 3 years of running, it really is a fantastic engine IMHO, only disadvantage to the 'Busa is that there's very little available in terms of tuning gear for them

Having spoken to Andy before at AB, I'm sure if using it North South you use the baffled sump you'd be fine, if you have any doubts just add accusump for peace of mind
