    Hi Ollie. Just as a matter of interest & knowing what oil surge is like on Elan's, are you running baffles in your sump? You don't seem to get any oil surge, so whatever you've got is obviously working when you look at how hard you're now able to corner. Have you ever done any video that show's the inside of your sump that might give me a clue?
    Cheers!

      Erm, it is unbaffled - see this clip th-cam.com/users/clipUgkxA0HjNOytiMqUiCDvSy8Cdwlic2ZRDiQH

      @@olly22n Hi Ollie,
      Excellent!! The thin plate down the middle of the sump is fairly basic baffle, so it's intriguing to see that working as well as it does. I know it's not really a baffle in the context of what people concoct, but there's no doubting it does the job. Thanks for your help and another great video on track. Cheers!

    Ollie. What's your verdict on the new front anti roll bar. Did it improve the handling and where did you get it from. Regards. Mike.

    • @olly22n
      @olly22n  ปีที่แล้ว

      No full verdict yet. I drive it on the road afterwards with the dampers softer by 25% from full hard and it was a LOT better. You can see the car bouncing on track.
      It has massively improved the roll and the car feels far more composed.
      Overall I think the car would benefit from a rear bar and a slightly softer front.
      It’s the 1 inch hollow bar from Kelvedon

    Hi,
    How much mm is the new stabi ? Can you feel good the difference?
    Thanks

      @olly22n  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi - it’s a 1” hollow bar. Yes the difference is quite stark - see the Llandow video for the before!
