Previously, we looked at oil pressure drops on track in the FA24 engine, used in the Subaru BRZ and Toyota GR86: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Jk5WTWoqt4
Now we are looking at a potential solution, a prototype baffle from Killer B Motorsports. We take my 2022 Subaru BRZ back to Thunderhill 5-Mile to compare the baffle against our control track day, with no baffle.
Thanks again to @JoeMcGuiganRacing for giving us consistent benchmark laps on these two setups.
