I would have shut the car off earlier if I had noticed the gauge earlier. 5-30 RoyalPurple, and I check after each session. Oil level was still full after I shut the car off.at 9:10 you lost oil pressure (< 20psi) and you kept driving it for another 30 seconds. Should have hit the kill switch immediately and pulled into the grass. Also back in the 4:30 minute timeframe your oil needle was only vertical. Mine always goes to 80psi at any decent throttle opening and RPM. Your oil pump wasn't generating near enough pressure from 4:30 onward.
I'll have to pay closer attention to my gauges but I don't recall my pressure dropping/fluctuating so much when on the brakes. It stays at 80 for about 5 seconds even with throttle closed. But yours the pressure drops immediately.
What oil were you running and did you check level before you went out for every session?
