  1. And brilliant commentators who make you hate going to toilet/to eat etc. Anything that makes you leave the couch! If Perez keeps driving like he did today! Massa could easily be pushed aside mid season and Sauber grab some other rookie or blood
  2. Don't go posting this stuff up on SAU. The real good gear you need to keep quiet and to yourself I did an exhaust with a friend years ago when I lived in Sydney and had after hours work to my old employers factory, tools etc. Their gear is top notch and I was planning on using two of their real mufflers in a twin system. What I need to find is a centre muffler that has a 4" inlet and twin 2.5" outlet
  3. I have had problems in my life. But next weekend, having to get up at 6am in Belgium to watch the Malaysian GP, just in time to walk out the door of the Hotel to cut laps at Spa in the Caterham? Thats not a problem I mind having. Caterham seem a bit quicker and close to the tail enders, but they are really in limbo. Nowhere near STR/Sauber/Williams but well ahead of the Marussia/HRT. Disappointing that their cars are still unreliable
  4. Gutted for Williams
  5. Now we get to see how much pace Kimi and that Lotus have And Webber is on the faster soft tyre....can he win it from here
  6. This is going to be very interesting
  7. Come on Mark, You need to get the job done on Rosberg. GREAT race so far
  8. Suck SHIT Hulkenburg. You cant bash into people in an F1 car. Dan back on track but Romain got the cop from that hack Williams driver :domokun AND MARK IF FLYING!!! Come on Old Son!!!!
  9. Fark. Romain gone. Webber gone. Dan gone. I am off to the pub
  10. How awesome is it to have a character like Disco Dan flying the Aussie flag? Always smiling and joking around
  11. Just sent you a link
  12. Thank god the Sky stream has started
  13. Channel 10, have a hard look at yourself. Who the fark are these muppets on the camera at present? Fark me dead. Now I understand what people were complaining about yesterday. Cars racing, drivers to be interviewed, previews to show...and that farking Milsy idiot is on tv. Just turned the TV off....
  14. Pilot Sport are different to Super Pilot Sport and Pilot Sport Cup
  15. So is Vettel. Webber out qualified him with no KERS. I shall from this day forward refer Vettle to Cougar, he was holding on too tight. He has lost his edge. Meanwhile, my man of the match for Quali ... if anybody was really looking he did the job alongside Alonso in a shit car in his first few races with no testing and less experience then he has these days. I really want to believe I can wear my Lotus jacket with pride If only he had dropped Homo whilst he was standing so close
  16. Massa being so much slower isnt encouraging. He really needed to come out fighting this year....not a good start. Would love to see him go long and take out Hamo coming out of the pit
  17. Holding up Kobayashi in Q2 edit...he didnt, mate was just pulling my chain
  18. Yeh was standing there as well watching Schuey trying to deter photographers Just heards Webz has copped 5 second penalty. Going to be a long day from 18th
  19. f**king Homo ! Awesome to see Romain up the pointy end. GO you good thing. Dan in the Top 10 and Vettel beiong beaten by Webz...not a bad day
  20. I have been googling away the past week trying to get a decent snap shot of the brands of semis slicks used these days. I have not considered the likes of the Federal 595RSR as a semi slick, though they are a very good tyre. Their are loads out there and in the 17" diameter range you seem able to get them for $300-350 a tyre vs the $550 that Yokohama and Dunlop wants for their tyres. (I have used a 255/40/17 as the baseline tyre for comparison) So I have not gone into huge details, just the brand and links. If people have used any of the more obscure models then be great if you could post feedback or results of any decent OS tyre tests you have come across. Dunlop DZ03G Dunlop DZ03G Link Comment - Seem to be recognised as almost being as quick as the AO50, but like all Dunlops good in the wet and quiet. Bridgestone RE55 http://www.bridgestone.com.au/tyres/motorsport/RE55s.aspx Comment - Still decent enough things though really need to roll out an update. No idea what is happening with the RE-11S Yokohama AO50 http://www.yokohama.com.au/motorsports/ Comment - Almost the track day standard tyre in Aus. Great grip but grossly expensive at ~$550 Nitto NT01 http://www.nittotire.com/Tire/nt01#size Comment - Seem insanely cheap at $350 a tyre Michelin Pilot Super Sport Michelin Motorsport page Comment - Said to have almost Pilot Sport Cup level of grip Pilot Sport Cup Micheline Pilot Cup site Seem to be the rage for the best road tyre you can put on fast track/street cars Federal FZ-201 & FZ-202 http://www.federalmotorsporttires.com/index.php?page=fz-201 Comment - Up around the $500 a corner and not a great range of sizes available. Kuhmo V70A http://fsport.com.au/kumho_v70a.html Seem to be used a bit on control tyre circles Toyo Proxes R888 http://toyotires.com/tire/pattern/proxes-r888-high-performance-competition-tires Seem to be better at shorter events like hill climbs where grip is there from near cold Hankook Ventus TD Z221 Hankook Motorsport page Comment - Seem popular in the US. AO50 type money and look to be of equivelant performance to AO50 for sprints Silverstone FTZ Sport Type RR Dealer link Similar pricing to Nitto, ~$250.
  21. Thats farked. They are cheaper then the street yoko tyres people are running and way, way cheaper then A050s
  22. How did we come by Pedders Sth Melbourne? If they know their way around imports its handy to have them around the corner from me
  23. Roy

    Gtr Extended Sumps

    Pete, you got a donor sump laying around? And just checking that these will clear std swaybars etc?
  24. And get black flagged at Sandown and Phillip Island so end up wasting entry
  25. Its raining. I may say home and watch them on the tv too. At least I can hear them from my place as I am only 1200mtrs from the track
