"The second condition when your engine loses oil pressure is during an extreme condition when the oil pressure surges.
Such as everyday hard braking and turning on the street (and most certainly on the track), extreme vehicle angles such as off-road conditions or in marine applications when there happens to be rough conditions.
These are the same conditions that would spill your coffee out of your coffee cup.
During these times the oil in the pan moves away from the oil pick-up tube (the tube that the oil pump sucks the oil out of the oil pan through) and there is a sudden loss of oil pressure.
Again leaving your engine without that vital lubrication."
