I will drive rally with the car but the engine does not have dry sump but a big-wing sump pan. What’s better dry sump or a modified oil pump?

Good for you Geert1
Dry sump is of course better (no aeration and constant feed) but it's complicated to set up and costly. Might be OK with the sump you currently have and use an 1.5qt/2qt oil pressure accumulator like Moroso or Canton.

- this is how an oil system with accumulator is set out

- The accumulator operates via air pressure at the gauge end, has a piston inside and stores oil under pressure, discharging into the main gallery if the engine pressure drops.

- This is a dry-sumped unit, modifed steel pan can be used of course. Pump is Titan 3 stage, one pressure two scavenge. A large array of ancillaries and hose is needed.
