As mentioned previously, Time Attack focuses on the fastest single lap you can put down whereas Cup Cars are Wheel-to-Wheel and you're likely NOT on the best racing line due to sharing the track rubbing fenders. TLDR: you're likely not getting max lateral Gs compared to TA folks who have clean track to hit the best lap possible. This is why our test or anyone who goes for a decent lapping day with no traffic will the proper environment for oil pressure drops.
