      <p>A consistent oil supply is fundamental to track and competition driving. This is ensured by the dry-sump lubrication system, even during extreme lateral and longitudinal acceleration.</p>
      <p>Once it has passed through the engine, two scavenge pumps in each cylinder head and another two in the crankcase take the engine oil quickly and efficiently back to an external reservoir.</p>
      <p>The oil pumps are designed so that there is negative pressure in the crankcase. This reduces resistance to the movement of the pistons to improve power output and efficiency. Another pump in the crankcase supplies the lubricating points in the engine from the external reservoir.</p>
      <p>For the engine this means consistent lubrication of the crankshaft assembly and the two cylinder banks, even under the extreme lateral and longitudinal loads which are possible with sport tyres.</p>
      <p>The new 911 GT3 is factory-filled with Mobil 1 high-performance fully synthetic oil. Its exceptional lubricating properties ensure reliable starting even in the coldest conditions and, importantly, contribute to the long-term durability of the engine.</p>
