Reply to "WET SUMP VS DRY SUMP - OIL"

Great explanation " Cowboy".
Couldn't explain any better.
Take a famous Formula One race track like Spa for instance.
When you go down and up in the famous "Raidillon", the car is not only going ( at very high speed ) left and right, but it also aggravates because of the load received when 1. braking 2. turning , and 3. downforce and gravity that modify the balance of the car , but going not only left and right, then, subsequently rear,front and rear again and ALSO up and down ! Poor oil pan and lubrication system, all this at around 6.000 RPM on a race Pantera, and then flat out for a full mile
It is a bit difficult for me to explain and be sure to be understood , but a small video will tell you more than 1.000.000 words can say ...Go to You Tube and see :

We shall do the same at the occasion of Spa Italia De Tomaso in 2011 ( 4-5 June ) ( www.spaitalia.be) see you there if you wish to experiment it by yourself !
