As long as you know the correct "static" fill quantity you can mark your dipstick accordingly and then mark it again indicating 1 qt low. This is hoe the manufactures do it when they design the pan initially. The dipstick is just a visual tool to alert you that is may need to add some oil. If the budget will allow give some thought to a different pan, one that will control the oil during cornering, autoX, open track etc. These cars a capable of generating much higher cornering forces that the car that the pan was originally designed for.
