Well there are alot of second generation drivers around at the moment.

Rosberg.

Senna.

Piquet.

Scheckter.

Locally:

Jones.

Johnson.

Moffat.

Plus alot more. Guess some of them must have some talent. I mean, the statistical probability means that atleast one of 'em could drive out of sight on a dark night. Surely. Ok, maybe not.

what a knuckle head. how could he say that? It's like saying if schumacher had one less leg he may not have won any titles. fact is mate, your uncle did die, and MS did win 7 world titles. get over it!

baron for president.

What an absoulte tosser...so he's basically saying that his uncle would have won the exact amount of championships that would see he and MS level on 5 each?

:thumbsup:

I think what he was saying was that Senna in a Williams in 94 & 95 would have been a much better proposition than Hill & others in the same car. To which you would have to concede he has a point.

Also, Senna would have retired after equalling some bloke called Fangio in the number of championships. Atleast according to Nigel Roebuck he would have.

Whether or not Senna would have beaten Schumacher is another issue & one not worth the argument. So nobody start anything & we will all get along fine. :thumbsup:

add brabham and brock to the above list.

you know who I like? Kubica. next Michael Schumacher I reckon.

Which Brabham - there are three of them, Geoff, Gary & David.

Also Brock (& for that matter Jones) are resapectively a step child & adopted.

I forgot to add the Davison family, although the latest generation seems to be doing quite well.

Steven Richards disproves the rule, also.

For next year I would put my house on the Finnish bloke. Don't mean Rosberg, either.

nah, Kubica all the way boys. mark my word. Pole will be on Pole soon enough.

I was thinking David Brabham I have NFI who the others are!

and yes Richo JR is good, but damn he has a head like a half sucked mango.

I forgot to list some bloke called Glenn Seton.

Geoff Brabham won Le Mans with Peugoet in 91 & did alot of racing in the US.

Gary Brabham won the F3000 championship in 1989.

Don't go the blood nuts, Baron. They can really angry really quickly....

They used to have an award in the Can Am series. It was for Polish drivers. It was the Polish Pole Position Pole. Unsuprisingly the trophy was a, um, pole.

By the way did anyone wathc the reply of the '78 Australian Grand Prix on ABC 2 on Sunday? The laps by Fangio in the old Merc & Brabham in the BT were just gold.

That's it. Great stuff. Later on in the fottage you can see the touring car mechanics lining the pit wall to watch. They followed it with edited highlights of the Hang Ten 400 - Moffat, Bond, Johnson in XC Falcons & Brock, Harvey, Grice, Rogers et al in A9X Toranas.

Gotta be some of the best TV going around at the moment.

just came across this little piece of trivia

Alonso completed his entire championship-winning campaign... in one car. Chassis R26-03 took to the grid in Bahrain some seven months ago and the same car crossed the finishing line in Brazil. It did not miss a single race.

... thats pretty impressive

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
