  1. Any tips on places that do reasonable pricing I am after diff bushes and front , lower inner LCA bushes. The cheapest pricing I have got is $320! Seems ridiculous to be paying so much for effectively rubber bushes. Is there an online store or something that are reasonable priced?
  2. Well...its only going to get more volatile But point was Lewis has benefited twice from calls...1 for NR to let him through...which he did. The other to not past despite being clearly quicker. Looking at the ledger Nico has played with a straight bat and been a team player. Lewis is never going to return the favours, but accept the situation this year is different with WDC on line. Was fun to watch the move on the outside of Homo by Nico that almost came off. Homo pushed him wide as you would expect but was praying they were going to hit
  3. Looks like Lewis has a rather short memory and has forgetten about Germany and Malaysia last year. Sook isnt even a good sport. Love him or hate him but i rate Massa for how he handled himself when Hamilton won his fluke of a WDC
  4. As a result from the race...cant really say when the race was so variable with weather, safety cars etc. Over the season I dont think Vettel has been as bad as the numbers/results suggest. My boy Romain had a shocker though. Throwing it away behind the safety car on cold slicks Hope McLaren didnt see that
  5. He pace in the race was food. Seems the changes are finally working for him. Hope to see him up there in the next few races
  6. Rosberg post race... All class. If a Merc driver is going to bag it then one is the more obvious candidate vs the perennial sook on his rags
  7. R.E.A.L D.E.A.L!!!!
  8. Going to be a wet race...well at least a wet start
  9. Does the front Nismo strut brace have the built in master cylinder brace?
  10. So were you holding the LCAs for somebody or keeping the mm?
  11. Simon Rennie was interviewed by Skysport the other race and my god he was a bore. It seems Disco Dan's engineer is a rather serious lad and never smiles or jokes...Dan's response
  12. EF Falcon would be a luxury car next to a 80s UK Ford!
  13. I already have the Sierra about right. From here itws just about little odd end jobs like hydraulic clutch conversion and the endless quest to rid it of rattles IO dont think people woudl have any idea how to get a Sierra's engine bay this neat!
  14. Well...based on some piccies I saw on FB, Blaise has the right idea of building a very cool old school car within the loose regs of historic... woudl love to build a DR30 competitor to go up against it but that aint going to happen
  15. Goodwood Festival of Speed (FOS) And most ridiculously...this P1 sitting in a grassed carpark/paddock. LOL, miliion pound supercar driven through 1km of dirst/dust/grass!!!
  16. So just got back from Le Mans, Goodwood Festival of Speed and Burger RIng. Pumped more than ever to get the underside of my car back in. Still trying to suss best solution to HICAS delete on my new rear cradle and then slap the whole thing in. Have gone to rather stupid lengths with regards to replacing things that didnt need replacing...but I want to just bash the old girl senseless the next few years like when I first got her with no fear of breaking things and or worn things crying enough. So, to keep motivation up will be posting some pics....but in the meantime...why I am broke at present Le Mans Better pics taken by my mate Jarrod https://www.facebook.com/pages/JRM-Photography/208118185886748
  17. Reading this is getting me excited about getting back on track! Good vids!
  18. Well, i had a cooler car there for a while! I was keen to grab a red/black coupe that was for sale but Shannons wouldn't cover me if it was parked on the street so had to grab something else as a runaround
  19. Lol...looking at the vid the car looks fine to me. Certainly not oversteering. You are nailing it in 2nd gear corners! Just drive the bus! I have found rwd cars with std arms in the rear with bushes and the cradle adjusted for traction offer best grip...all these adjustable arms means most people struggle with handling...std may be average but better than a $1,000 rear end that is worse
  20. Another thing that sh1ts me. FOM have taken the sector times off their lice timing over the net. You want live timing with sector times rather than dots...buy the phone app
  21. Bernie is tied up in court for having paid off someone...I really hope the verdict is such that he needs to step aside from F1 and the next cab off the rank guides it through either sale by CVC or a different style of F1. So many teams are struggling. Many circuits struggling to get crowds. We are having a cracking season with sooo much good racing. I personally think with the engines and various states of tune through the race and how they deploy their electric power they can do away with DRS. But even if they keep it the sport has bigger problems...and its not the show. How the hell FOM keep soo much of the revenue whilst the teams get dick, circuit promoters lose money year after year . The show/racing is fine....it woudl be far better if the mid-field had some more dollars from tv rights etc and the sprot did something about stopping Mercedes, RBR and Ferrari from spending 300-400 million a year. Hell, so much of that goes to DHL etc for shipping at higher rates than the public pay for the same thing. Fancy being contracted to a series where you have to use a sponsor and they charge you more than any other company. Good old FOM murdering the sport...rape and pillage. The older Bernie gets the worse he is getting....or is it his CVC masters?
  22. I cant help but laugh every weekend that Button struggles and really hope that the young Dane takes it to him. Can't help but think Eric is in at McLaren saying...you know I have a brilliant young guy that will get what you need out of the Hinda-McLaren chassis. Hate to be following McLaren next year but will be better than watchign poor old Romain flounder at the back of the grid. I like Alan Jones...i am not saying he is a good commentator...god he was awful at the Aus GP on the podium interviews...but he is a WDC, a lad on the drink and tells good tales off camera.
  23. Ch10 coveragw was worse than usual. Anyone know their FB page? Feel like a rant lol re Alan Jones...he messes up but i still rate his insight
