Dont need to tie them off. Just use the buckle. This is how i have mine

Yeh, wrap it around the bar and dont use eyelets . There are two schools of thought regarding strap lengths. Some WRC guys etc all use mega short straps due to the potential of roll overs and impacts that will distort the cage. So any cage distortion etc can result in a loose harness and driver/navigator not being 100% secure. The trade off is with short straps there is no "damping" in a big accident. Even if the stretch is only in mm, longer straps dampen the Gs the body is subjected to in a major impact and can help reduce the bruising of internal organs etc So there is no right or wrong.

So anybody else notice Ricciardo putting is hand up for Buemi's seat. The guy was quick on the first day and getting a tad quicker. Lets hope he is giving engineers good feedback and impressing enough for Marko to rethink the STR line up. Or, perhaps with Lotus having RBR rear ends and gearboxes then maybe Lotus can be talked into benching Trulli to give the guy race miles and perhaps share some more RBR technology

$350 for the Apexi V-Mas Spring retainers

Awesome to finally see a GTSt being punted well and showing how quick they can be....lol i just never had the talent to prove the point

Looks like both sets are sold, will keep you posted if they dont pan out

Senna is only there because his name. I dont think he has the ability to shine in evern a good car. Plenty of other drivers more worthy, especially Hullk who has sown flashes of pace, when in position raced hard and cleanly...and come along nicely alongside a team mate who is still very quick and no doubt handy at developing a car. Really is a sad time for Williams when they bring in a good young steerer and cant even sell him or trade him....they are a middle field team and there is no technical recruitment, engine deals or sponsors coming on board to suggest that is going to change anytime soon I am interested to see if Petrov retains his seat....he did well in the last race but not sure that will be enough

I bought a ready made harness out of Japan. Was a bit of a rip-off but it made it easy. As for the bootlid, I am not sure. I dont think it did. I have two bootlids, one plain and one with the modded R34 GTR wing. Not sure when pounting the wing whether the bolt holes need to be modified, but just looking at where the posts are I would bet a large sum of money the wholes are different

Will give you a call later today. These are currently at my work in Richmond

GUTTED! How Fezz lost it? Webber rolled the dice and at least he had a go. Vettel has been clearly the quikcest guy out there the last few months and the back half of the season shows he deserved it. But real shame for Mark who did it all season...to lose it in such a touch, close fight And young Jessica, no wonder Button doesnt give a shit if he is quick or not!

Thanks for the offer, but cant take $300 As per my first post, they are both brand new. The Greddy one has been removed from this packaging, and whilst being handled around and trial fitted to a spare manifold there is a small little mark that you have to look closely to see. But the SARD one is still in its full original packaging as you can see in the pics Both rails are twin entry! Greddy Small nic SARD

Well, we will never know but one of 4 things has happened. He has finally run out of responses to Sebs speed and simply cant dig any deeper. Which is probably the case. OR, he is just not quite on it this round. Just like Button during most quali sections, and all other title contenders have had at times this year. This is the next likely scenario IMO. OR, he choked...but in my eyes if he was going to choke he would bin it trying...I dont think choke = slow for Mark, it seems bin it with a rush of blood Or, for the conspiracy theorists, he is back there to play rear gunner for Seb....seems strange that he is down by so much in the section that is a drag strip. I know Webber was running a different rear wing on Friday and I put his lack of speed down to the fact that the new wing sucked. But assuming their cars are now on par aero wise he is still way down on the drag strip? Maybe Marks Brazil engine jsut doesnt have the goods in it anymore

Turn 1 is pretty quick in the world of first turns so thing status quo though the first few sections....but can still see a few wheel to wheel battles resulting in spoilerless cars or punctures...especially that first big stop

Have had this laying around for a while, was going to use it with my TD06-25G when i swapped over from my 20G kit. Have gone 6boost manifold and Turbosmart to and stuck with the 20G so if I go 25G will just retain the Turbosmart gate now that it is on the 6 boost manifold. This gate has only been used for some dyno tuning and back to back testing with a 25G and other turbo setup....so it is near new. My asking price reflects this, but is a saving over what you would otherwise pay new. Very good quality pieces of kit, IMO the Type R is the best sounding gate. Much angrier the the higher pitch Turbosmart gate I am currently running. Asking $600 Located in Melbourne Victoria

Yep, both sets of lifters are fine. Will post some pics when I get them back this week

Well, with Hamilton and Vettel on the front row and having to win...it is going to make a very interesting race. I wonder justhow professional and level headed the front row is going to be. I think Alonso can afford to be a little conservative which means Button has nothing to lose and Webber can take a punt. It will be easy for title contenders to lose a wing or tyre at the start. You can see how Alonso is exposed with junkies around him that need the fix more then he does...he may end up being knifed

I dont think of Mark as a choker though...i would back him to throw it into the wall before choking and being slow. I look forward to reading a bit more from around the traps. I know on Friday all Marks running was testing new wings....so you woudl think thats a good thing. Love to know if he is running them or whether they went back to old spec bits

Well...iys been nice Unless Alonso gets it on with Vettel Webber has sucked in the second sector all weekend....there straights for gods sakes? Something isnt right. Webz is meant to have the freshest engine...but he and the car have no pace Alonso can walk it from here
