Reply to "Racing Oil Pans (from another thread)"

Doug you're right on the chassis specific issues. I remember the Boss 302 cars getting these crazy looking wide pans with reservoirs sticking out the side but they had plenty of room.

Interesting to then look at dry sump systems that needed to be developed around the late 60's early 70's because the lateral G's were getting so high due to better tire compounds that a wet sump just couldn't keep the pickups covered (CanAm cars that could generate 1 to 1.5 G's in a corner).
