Why a baffled sump, do the time attack rules not allow for a Dry sump?

There is a very good system available from Race Engine Design.

Dont really need one although it has been considered and may be changed once testing has been done if crankcase pressure or oil surge becomes an issue. Time Attack have changed to a Pirelli road tyre this year so at this stage the baffled sump will be more than sufficient.

We have also been in touch with Pace Products to design a proper dry sump system, but need to find a willing donor car/owner to do the development on this as our engine wont be available for most of the year....

Baffled sump is pretty essential on a track car with track tyres imo, especially on some of the long high g corners.

Thanks for the mention Ben!

Have you managed to get the centre brace/upper brace fitted yet?

I presume you are also going to be using a Accusump as I wouldn't rely solely on a baffled sump in this type of application.

The Race Engine Design dry sump is a proper system (with a very well designed and produced pan) and is well regarded even by pace who have a gentleman's agreement with RED not to produce a pan as long as RED are producing theirs. The only thing about the RED system is, it is not strictly designed to be used with a oem Honda gearbox but a Ford type 9/Getrag 265 pattern. They now produce their own bell housing for use with any type 9/265 box.
