I'm not sure if this problem is related to when I was racing last week... anyways I drove 60 miles last night and when I got home (it was dark) but I noticed a bunch of oil on my back bumper and little hatch window...
this morning I go outside to check it out and the oil wasn't blowing out of the exhaust, it was leaking from my oil pan apparently and spraying along the bottom of the right side of the car!!
From what I can tell, it looks like seal around half of the oil pan has failed... I am wondering what would cause this to happen? Is it the high miles (120k on the ze now), possibly a bad PCV valve and high pressure had no where to go, or because I was racing and this is what happens when you race?!

has anyone replaced their oilpan seal? I checked the online manual and it looks like it's just a bunch of bolts... I don't think I will have to remove my header piping... any advice is appreciated!!!
Here's some pics...
