Drove about 35 km on track and when i was driving home the oil light came on so i stopped immediately and filled her up. I changed oil and after that i had been driving for about 500 km before the track driving. Is this normal oil consumption?

were you making hard left turns for long periods of time? You could have had oil come up to the filler neck and go to the PCV and back into the primary turbo

the more you beat on the car the more oil it will use. that is completely normal

only two left turns at each lap. Oh and i use Castrol GTX3 dino oil.

It's long fast rights (not lefts), with oil level starting at full.

Consumtioned? I like that word! Yeah, it's normal to use up quite a bit of oil if you're beating the car pretty good...

Check your y-pipe or other intake piping for excessive build-up of oil. Its normal to have an oily surface but not pools of oil in the piping or intercooler. If this is the case, you need to set up an oil catch can.

Wide open throttle, track driving will surely burn some oil but I believe the oil level light comes when you're almost two quarts low. Did you check the oil level before driving on track, where was it on the dipstick marks?

Also, check your PCV to make sure it closes when under pressure.
