You have to look at the times in context. I understand Fisi already had a days testing under his belt, so by his second day he was probably on a different program to Heiki.

The Aguri cars will be underweight, light on fuel, and probably last years Honda which they are using to get tyre data with...well thats my 2c anyway

Based solely on this test result I am predicting a Super Aguri 1 - 2 result in Melbourne.

Better get on the bandwagon now, Roy. Before it leaves town.

true, the lap record for Jerez is a mid 1:16 and they're all way, WAY off that. Still Kovalainen is a ways of Fisi's pace, and you know he not the fastest cookie out there. Its looking more and more like a red 07

But if they are running on this years tyres, how would they even get close to the record?

Sure, wipe off Heiki already. :)

Lets say i was a team owner. I wouldnt have my two drivers doing the same programs. I would have one geu comign to grips with tyre testing, whilst the other tests aero parts, endurance runs to get an idea of the life of new components on the new chassis. There isnt any reason to be running drivers to the same program.

You want to understand what makes the tyres work, how changes to the car work...all whislt still getting plenty of kms done...so its prety obvious you cant compare times

I understand that RBR are rolling out there cars for some testing today. Be interesting to see how they go when we read about it tonight.

Webber is saying he is expecting podiums whilst Newey is talkign down expectations, sayign to wait for 2008. [Crosses fingers]

Greece are one step closer to securing a race.

As; "Developments over recent months seem to suggest the Greek government is in favour of a race that could help boost tourism, one of the country's main sources of income. Plans are afoot for a possible circuit sited an hour from Athens."

My question to you people is; Will they/should they include it as part of an 18 race calender

or

Replace an existing track? If so what would you like to see go?

And as we all know we will be seeing the inaugural Japanese GP at Fuji Speedway. Should be interesting!

For my 10 cents worth I wish they would replace the Albert Park circuit. It has to be THE most boring circuit for F1 racing anywhere - even the track in Hungary is better.

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
