To give you an idea of the oil path.
Especialy at a drag track or in high G's what I explained can happen.
Sorry for the shitty pic

pickup, pump, filter, lifter galley, cam bearings, mains bearings, rod bearings.
it's all a series path. Each cam bearing/main pair gets feed from the lifter galley.
rockers and springs get fed from the lifters.

sucking the area around the pickup in the sump dry is possible...seen it, sucking the pan dry...dont think so, with even the most high volume pump at 10000rpm under a extreme cornering or lateral acceleration run... sucking the pan dry seems impossible
