Default track times and big problem

well....i made 3 passes at the track....traction loss was pretty obvious......

my first pass was 13.8 @103mph with .660 reaction
second pass was 13.7 @ 103mph with a .610 reaction
third pass was awesome....13.5 @103 with a .505 reaction....
i probably had the best reaction for the day.....i did no power shifting and had traction loss in first and second...second was only brief though

on the third pass as i crossed the finish line i looked at my oil pressure and there was 0 oil pressure.......i coasted back to the pit area and checked my guage and it was ok....then i had a buddy look at the mechanical line and as i started the motor for a couple second there was no oil feeding through the mechanical line.....so i said S$#t...i pulled the distributor off to see if i could see the pump shaft and its there but not sure if it is twisted or broke.......i saved the motor and will do a inspection when i pull the oil pan off......i did use the melling shaft that was supplied and should have bought a ARP piece i guess............i just got the car back an hour ago.......it is 3:35pm sunday!!!
