yes, last night's race was classic schumacher. behind on the grid, and in the first segment, then sure enough had more fuel than those ahead of him. stayed out with clear track when they pitted, put the hammer down, and as usual in-lap was a blinder, pit stop was good, rejoins in first place. hold it to the end.

nice to see alonso cop a bit of bad luck for a change :) hehe

YYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaha fcuk off and dont come back!!!!! i dont care if he goes out on top, or the bottom, sideways or even fcuking upside down... as long as he goes!! Good on him for all he achieved, espicially for dragging a shamozzel like Ferrari was, kicking and screaming into a winning team... hopefully now they go back to the good old days of Ferrari infighting and instability.

On a dissapointing note, i dont think i saw even 1 second of Webbo last night!! typical broadcast of focusing on two certain cars... as if the track isnt uneventful enough

Im Glad he is retiring now while he is on top and not hanging on too long. MS has liftted the F1 scene to new levels in many ways and got non F1 peeps talking about the sport and no one will ever beat his 7 world champoinships (maybe 8 if this year works out) . He has done amaing things for the Prancing Horse. Now all the 2nd rate drivers(Joking) like Kimi have a chance at the title next year. Ferrari FTW...Thanks MS :)

PS I hope Fkn Alonso expires in a firery mess in the next few races and MS takes out number 8 champoinship :no:

And no Webber coverage last night ......then again who cares.....when it comes to the bigger F1 picture Webber is a true underachiever and will fade out of the sport in a few years, while never achieving a fkn thing.

What did everyone think of alonso's penalty for "apparantly" holding up Massa? Personally any faith I had in F1 being a true sporting series where the best man wins, has completely gone out the door.

I heard somewher that it was the Italian race stewards that decided the penalty. is this true? If yes, then this has to be the most blatant form of cheating i am yet to see.

Absolutely love Schuey, and respect everything he's achieved as a driver, but give Alonso a break. The kid is a freak of a driver and if current form continues throughout his career and is in a decent car, I have no doubt he'll be remembered later on as on the same level as schuey if not better.

my thoughts on his penalty are the same as most motorsport sites and many fans... and you can sum it up like this

Ferrari Internationale de l'Automobile

Like Alonso said "this is not racing"...

That sums up all of F1 :)

yeah, go the pole. good to see a countryman of mine doing well. :)

The penalty against alonso did sound a bit iffy, but i didn't see it so can't comment. Either way his car let him down.

not sure who you can believe in the noble sport of F1, but Alonso commented that the engine let go because he was pushing so hard to make up places.

Given how reliable the car has normally been, I kind of think his comments have some truth to em.

Not going at you Nismo, but I wish that the commentators would actually read the damn stewards report. The blocking was not in the later parts of the lap, it was when FA came out of the pits that he was penalised for blocking FM.

It's just like the two stewards who decided that MS had deliberately blocked the track in Monaco where Spanish, if you place the nationality card for the FA penalty, then the same can apply for the MS one.

blackrex, if that was the case then I didn't see the part where he came out the pits so disregard my comments. Unfortunately I made the mistake of believeing our world class commentators who showed FA miles in front of Massa, and said that this was the incident the penalty was referring too.

On another note, how much did you want to slap diffy, for spoiling Michael's speach and anouncing his retirement before we heard from schuey. :P

and why wasn't Alonso penalised for cutting the chicane as shown in one of benm's videos? He clearly gained a position by braking late (too late) and going straight across the grass.

Alonso wasn't penalised simply because he was ahead BEFORE he tried to turn into the chicane. Which is to say, for exactly the same reason that Schumacher wasn't penalised in Hungary. Doesn't stop the decision being a stupid one on both accounts, however...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      By AnimalGarage · Posted

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
