Default oil light

last night i took so very sharp turns consecutive and while i was hitting the last turn my oil light or oil pressure light came on. Does anyone or has anyone had this happen? Suppose to go to Summit Point this comming spring to race my car anything I can do to prevent this from happening?

Maybe baffles in the oil pan?

wtf that doesn't even make sense



maybe you are just a tad low on oil. Check oil level. If you are close to an oil change your car does burn up some oil. Whats the miles since your last oil change?

Did you check your oil, was it low? Or was it at the proper level?
