  1. Pumped about this weekend. Bring on Spa. Gutted I am not able to get a job in Brussels as this would be a dream weekend to stroll down and camp at Spa for the WEC race.
  2. Still got this and trying to pay for a holiday...so...bump
  3. Just run those housings. They are circlip compressor covers so easy to clock them however you want. Just weld alloy inlets to the compressor cover...I think they would simply be too big, even on an RB30....though would be sure to make uber power considering a friends twin TD06-20G 2.7L made something like 550rwkws on race fuel years and years ago.
  4. Yeh, when I first went for a ride in a car with RPM modified Teins I went out the next week and bought some and sent them off to RPM. They are damn good things and suspect its all in the valving more than the spring rates. Had to grab a second pair when I went GTR rear cradle and got the chance to do another set...largely the reason why my thing even as a rwd car cant blazed 2nd gear with 330rwkws...just traction and hooks up! What sized rim are you running? Thought of throwing some Carrera Cup slicks at it?
  5. Some T517z ot T518z turbine housings and you are away
  6. There goes going to bed early tonight...tops thread!
  7. lol...sadly rather predictable
  8. Thats '95 isnt it? Epic on board. I remember watching that race ... Wish they had of shown all that on board back in the day. I used to love Alesi and Fezz back in the day.
  9. I actually rate Toto and respect Lauda...Don't get me wrong Lauda can often and does often annoy me but every now and then he comes up with a funny throw away line and you just know he has been there, done that. I also respect how they have built up the team and in the Brawn era it was team orders...now its race clean and go for it boys. MEGA respect!!!! But lets see them do that when racing each other may mean one loses a position to a RBR or Fezz..
  10. Yeh, just checked the paperwork from past days. Was 107dB & 110dB which is bonkers loud in my books!
  11. I did 10 or so days of driving through the Swiss, Italian and Austrian Alps before importing my Sierra Cosworth RS back to Aus. That was back in 2011. Wow, how time flies. I am going to Le Mans and Spain in a few weeks so planning on doing some of those Spanish roads EVO uses. f5twister, Even if I have my gate atmo, which I doubt I will I dont think I will have much trouble with noise at Spa. I have only ever seen a few crazy loud race cars get pinged for noise...and seen loads of crazy loud cars run all day. Do you know any different?
  12. LOL, different strategy call seemed odd. The guy two stopping who is quicker than the guy 3 stopping needs to come through on the same tyres....and Seb has to stay out due to there not being a clear spot behind to drop into if 3 stopping. So had to make a two stop work, whcih he ultimately did. Goes to show even the tyre genius can ask the tyres to operate outside their window from time to time
  13. Well you can take me off that list of everyone. Don't think youbwill read me having said anything....was funny though...at least Vettel snuck a funny line in
  14. http://youtu.be/oUKk0nSW8x4 How good is the Mansell send up.
  15. Funny. Snowman said as a joke that the first question for Jev this year should be "what do you hope to achieve in your last season of F1?" Ted Kravitz is already talking about a paddock rumour that a mid season STR driver change is being entertained unless JEV finds pace. Kyvat has been impressive given age, kms and experience of F1.
  16. Plan is Spa, Zolder and Zandvoort plus some UK tracks. Sadly the dollars wont stretch to doing any French, Italian or German tracks
  17. Pretty exhausted today and have to say the weather made for rather poor viewing. Good to see Porsche got a podium...and Hartley doing a good job alongside with Webber
  18. The valve springs are a question mark and they will soon be coming out and replaced with some Tomei springs. Sadly the RB24 isnt going to happen. I plan on taking the car to Europe next year and need to save money so sold all the RB24 gear to another forum member who is cracking on with a quality build which I am going to be exited to see the results of. Longer term I am being boring and going to put a std RB26 in it and engineer it all so that I can enjoy it on the street and track
  19. Quali times were close. Come on Porsche
  20. What I am finding amusing is the amount of forums now saying Vettel is crap because Dan is looking so good next to him. Also stoked for Romain. Now to see if Homo has a brain fart. Interesting that it was Rosberg that broke and not Homo. Have to expect Homo has the edge in talent but he is a big girl with regards to maturity and coping with off track pressure. I also saw some footage from P2 and P2 with Maldanado. He is shocking. He speared off the road because he was looking down at the steering wheel and ran off the road...then in P2 binned it on pit entry! He is shocking...can be fast but has no grey matter!
  21. I thought it was thecrap nature of the old T3 IG housings whilst the T25 housings worked fine...case being the T618z knock offs
  22. DJ...kick ass library! hrd...That's not what I said. But nice try. Anyway...Lets see if Renault can live up to their talk of a far more promising weekend for their power units. Big weekend of motorsport
  23. LOL, they do sound like an SR20 crossed with a 4 stroke trail bike
  24. LOL...yep. I did read that the FIA offsets have included some rather wayward % too!
