I haven't done a post mortem yet.
Taking a look at my footage, I noticed my oil pressure dropping pretty drastically during cornering (on the stock gauge). I started running around 3/5 dipstick because the blow by was filling my Vibrant 1 liter in 1 session. Maybe not advisable now that I look at the footage, so perhaps a spun bearing?
Its been hard to get the activation energy to work on the car knowing its dead

The upside is that if it's just bearings, rebuilding the engine shouldn't be all that hard or expensive (I would think).
Pull it!

What is the routing of your catch can? Are you on Ethanol? As mentioned above, you could look at a baffled oil pan. What was your oil temp and pressure?
