D-Day tomorrow (diffuser day)

and arguably the worlds greatest ever N/A supercar, the McLaren F1, is powered by a bespoke BMW Motorsport designed V12. of course that arrangement predates the McLaren/Mercedes affiliation, but i'm sure it grates on the M-B top brass anyway... not to mention the fact the era when McLaren (and Williams) used to trample all over Ferrari (mid 80's to 90's), the cars sported Honda power. Honda should have just stuck with what they did best.

Some food for thought re:KERS- It's mandatory from next season, so all the current buzz teams like Brawn GP are gunna cop it next year when they have to go through the teething stage with their systems. Meanwhile McLaren can just adopt the cheater-diffuser on the 2010 car (assuming it doesn't get outlawed on the 14th at the hearing) and be back at the pointy end. An F1 car rated by their top driver as a 4/10 suggests I won't have much to cheer about this year...

what a gyp

it'll be much the same as the way Honda does the NSX servicing- only fully trained mechanics with a good work history are allowed to work on them or gve them a shake-down out on the street

rearrange these words into a sentance- snowflake's, hell, chance, in

i know which car will have the biggest line next to it for passenger rides at the next DECA event well played Snowy

4 of those ARE Skylines (one's just a wagonoid version)

there's nothing like being (more or less) right . that'll teach these sneaky Toyota bastards for ignoring yellow warning lights, lol 6 points to the champ to start his title defence. already changed your mind about Gonzo being the lock for '09?

'Grats to Button. Deseverved a win. Good to see Lewis in 3rd place from 18th (after Trulli gets the inevitable demotion to 4th for passing under safety car conditions )

they should try the same with Ferrari- those dopey outboard rearview mirrors on posts are surely part of the aero package, and they flex and wobble like a mofo! lol Nakajima won't be out long...

leaf-spring mobile will get it's botty spanked

Massa must have been dreaming of his karting days as a boy on his last quali lap; I can't remember seeing more oppy-lock stabs during dry qualifying

f**k just... f**ck

Brawn cars look like ass- need to get rid of the day-glo wheel covers. Wonder if they will give the cars a major Virgin signage makeover during the night?..

this diffuser business has me worried really worried...

what's the 'loop-hole' in the rules that makes the diffusers of these teams slightly dodgy?

done can't wait to spend the $5 saving on some of that fine-dining style Oran Park snack shop cuisine!* *may contain sarcasm

yeah, that lightning was crazy while it lasted

heard good things about that turb'- would like to see a before and after dyno chart for an engine that swapped a T04Z for one with no other mechanical changes.

his boyfriend complained that his hands were too rough; so he's been moisturizing

So, to sumarize; You can be found not guilty of an alleged traffic offence by a legitimate court in this state, have the fines overturned, and yet the RTA still takes a bite out of your arse in the form of points accrued for an offence you've been cleared of? What kind of machiavelian horse-shit is that?

how much are they each?

read a while back that Shumi made over $AUD 1.5 billion from F1 while he was racing when taking team pay and various high-end endorsements into account. why couldn't my parents have scraped together enough dough to fund me a karting career back in the mid 80's? i will laugh 'til i die of stomach cramp if at the end of the season Ferrari loses out on a WDC due to an engine related DNF that sees them finish ahead on points, but not race wins Judas
