    There was a brief period of time when car racers had an
    electric oil pump
    for such a purpose, but the fad went away. I assume
    it's because there was
    no improvement noted. It may be that the extra pump,
    lines and drain on
    the battery outweighed any advantage

     More likely it is because every race engine is
    completely rebuilt after every race anyway, so why
    bother?
