Yeah not sure about that, he said he had to set some pretty unusual values, possibly for warm crank on sartup it's been a long time

Hey bud I pmd you but basically yavus at uni group just basically tuned around the issue.

Picking up new amarok next week, will see how the little 2 litre goes. Before I get flamed for not buying a patrol or cruiser, the wife will end up driving it more than me so It was a compromise. Daily comfort vs towing practicality. I'm sure it will capable of pulling the axe plus tools.

Said he did have a helmet on though. Not good either way.

Overseas (developing world)labour costs made this an inevitability we are no different to GM brass making the call to pullout if I can get a product cheaper I usually do. btw bakemono its a complex issue with mistakes made by the GM board and employees/ narrow minded unions to the detriment of a best case outcome for the involved parties and indirectly related businesses. regardless there are real world consequences for people and families who will be affected negatively to put it lightly. so to be so dissmissive of such hardship is pretty heartless, and lol at the group a reference you need to read up a bit.

Apparently his high school sweetheart.

yep exactly why I can't come as well baby sitting duties for ne though.

I'm out, family duties clashing with car fun. So my spot is free for someone else to enjoy.

I've actually changed my mind on this I was overthinking it, lengthen cockpit area for taller drivers and add ballast to seat to meet minimum driver + seat requirements, then let it rain cheeseburgers. Ric at 170 odd cm weighing 65kg and being told he needs to drop another couple of kilos is a joke.

Yeah I get that but say you place remaining weight/ballast nice and high to discourage jockeys you can potentially disadvantage lighter drivers. But I bet Montoya agrees with you.

Very hard to do though.

Don't get me wrong DJ I agree it's getting so bad now the relatively successful teams are struggling, that's why I don't complain when teams like lotus take Maldonado on for money I mean people blaming lotus for the dick move but what else can they do? I guess what I meant was I do believe mclaren cars have the potential to turn a profit and if it does it doesn't matter if the racing operation loses money. The teams aero departments are way to powerful with to much influence over the formula. Current gen f1 cars make great time attack cars but shitty race cars. ffs the aero problem has caused shit boring races so the solution they come up with, complicate the aero by adding stally rear wings on a button yay. We need more power, mech grip>aero downforce and then drivers will become more of a commodity again with wheel to wheel racing to follow. By then Bernie will be gone too and they will bring media rights and coverage into this decade and have YouTube channels, live streams for races and all sorts of new content ideas that can actually be accessed by people outside the uk and Germany.

Yeah but they've been investing massively in new parts of the business (road cars, electronics etc) plus the cost of the 2014 rule changes at a time when they've lost they're major partner in MB (whilst they've been supplying engines I doubt there's been any other support financially). So an operating loss is not to surprising and maybe Honda is gonna fill the MB Vodafone void. According to that article I wouldn't be surprised in another couple of years the road cars will be profitable enough to keep it all long term viable. But the thing they never seem to mention is that the team is nearly 50% Middle East owned.

Well he's already sold his house and lives at the factory so guess that's about as committed as one can get.

Wow didn't see that coming (if it does actually happen), probably a good thing IMO. and damn Williams will run this independent thing to their graves.

Looks like they might've getting ready to push Bernie sideways, as he's come out saying Horner would be the best candidate to replace him and he'd walk him through the transition and he wouldn't work with someone from the outside corporate world.

So is that pull it straight, patch and paint? If so that's a good deal. How's the rear bar?

Count me in, have enjoyed every tech night I've been to this year and expect this one to be just as good.

Imagine that Williams with brawn pull a rabbit out of a hat in 2014 and massa is faster than Alonso.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/24725406 So bbc reporting brawn is leaving at the end of the year with toto and paddy to run the show business and technical respectively.

Me neither PR prolly told him finger gets you boo'd chuck some skids instead they seem to like that.

Looks like massa raised the money for his Williams drive.

Fail at internets
