good on you

if i got sucked into what ivan was trying to get me to do...i would've flipped out

instead i sat here laughing at the fact that he's so much of a die hard mclaren fan, that he doesnt care that his team got beaten by 2 other teams, just that ferrari got beaten....he's a pretty hard core mclaren fan ay :laugh:

How boring was the Silverstone race? And it was all pumped-up to be a nice three-way battle between Kimi, Michael and Alonso.

Renault are simply unbeatable at the moment. You know Alonso isn't hitting full pace when he's got a 10-12 second lead. He just maintains it. So if Mike or Kimi manage to keep up with him, it won't be for long.

Not that I swing towards any one team - I've been watching F1 for too long to have favorites. But I can tell when one team has it hands down, and that's the case for the moment.

One interesting point however is to think about where Renault was 2-3 years ago (e.g. nowhere). Now look at them- they're unstoppable. Makes you wonder which team will be next to follow suit? You might laugh at some of the backmarker teams now, but you would have been chuckling at Renault some time ago as well.

Interesting to bear in mind...

dezz and ctjet, please cease posting OT. this is getting old. this thread is here to discuss the 2006 F1 season, not whether or not one of you has a better team to support. it's bringing the thread down, so please stop it.

ohh, harsh words azz! I dont know what it is but i just dont like alonso? tall poppy syndrome maybe? it was funny though, 2005 at melbourne and you couldnt find a renault supporter for love or money, 2006 and it was a sea of blue and yellow... mmm everyone does love to be on the winning team!

im really a david coulthard fan!!!

and the best thing that could of happened to him was being dropped by Mclaren.

even though he aint doing the greatest.

its amazing how many people follow the winning team!

i guess thats why so many people follow MS cause if he isnt winning he is dam close.

Ah not me-Ive been Tifosi forever. Always been in the Red army since i was 5yrs old-lol

What has Webber got to do to finish a race??? He must have broken a mirror cause he is in the middle of some serious bad luck

I think Webber will get there and so will Cosworth if they keep there heads down and steer clear of all the internet forums saying he should tell Williams to piss off haha! Like people have said where was Renult 3 years ago, they had reliability issues but had promise, thats what Williams has now, so heres to hoping Webber can get up there casue not being biased I think he is one of the very best drivers in that series, as good as the MS, Alonso's, or Kimi's, started to prove that at Monaco to, damn car!!!

So, i wait to see if Williams have signed a Toyota deal. If so, who is your money on goign to Toyota?

Willit be Wurz or Rosberg farmed out to Toyota? I have a sneaking feeling that Rosberg will end up somewhere else next year. I first thought it would possibly be Renault, but now not so sure, perhaps it will be Toyota.

And if Williams are to give up the Cossie powerplants, i would so love it to be for a Renault engine. Problem is it wont likely happen as Renault will be charging a pretty penny for the customer engine, something Frank wont like. But they have recent history together...but im dreaming.

I still say Rosberg will vacate hsi seat for Wurz :D

please let williams stick with cosworth i really think in the next few years cosworth V8s will be their 'ace in the hole'. buying customer engines off a factory F1 team is a sure fire way to get yourself pegged between 10th and 5th but never any higher.

I agree with Beer Baron, I don't like Alonso either. Maybe for the same reason too (tall poppy syndrome), or that it's because he keeps on winning and makes it look easy.

Maybe if the winner of each race varied somewhat, it would allow us to pick a favorite and go with him. I'm a Kimi man myself...

Well i use to like Alonso, he seemed to be a good style of charactoer when he was on the cusp. In 2005 i was walkign around the Aus GO wanting to buy Renault gear, or RBR gear and couldnt find any. 18 months later im glad i couldnt as the team have turned out to be a bunch of c0ck knockers...even Fisi has gone bad :whistling:'

Oh well, crosses fingers that Tom Walkinshaw willk get back into Renault and turn it back into a team i like :P

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
