Oil light comes on in really sharp turns...

I haven't driven my car in 3 months, since its back in jersey, but i'm making a list of stuff I want to get to when I get back to it around thanksgiving. I remember it either being during sharp left or sharp right turns, but the light and buzzer would come on and go off when i straightened out, with good oil levels and everything. It only happened once or twice that I could think of so I never really investigated it much, but I want to start going to autocrosses down in VA and I dont want it to be a problem. Any suggestions?

Check the oil level sensor and wiring for a short.

He said in the original post that his oil level is OK.

The buzzer normally goes of at about 2 - 2 1/4 quarts low, BTW.
