ITV is really going to make me sick with their fascination of Hamilton. Their Sepang preveiw is more about how good Hamilton is going to be, and if he stuff's up he's still our golden boy. Its non stop praise and excuses for the boy. Talk about favoritism

I havent heard thier Melbourne broardcast but i was told it was pretty... 'focused' on certain people and cars

Bring back Murray. At least his insane man love for schumi was interesting to listen to

Actually, for much of his life James Hunt was a reefer smoking pisshead. He cleaned up his act in the end - just before he died from a heart attack. I think there is a lesson in that for all of us.

Favourite James Hunt quotation.

"We can't quite see the pits from our commentary position."

Explanation:

The commentary postition was in the BBC studio in London. The race was in Mexico.

They were going through some of murray's mistakes at the GP (pretty sure thats where I heard it anyway)

stuff like

'The car in front is completely different, but its exactly the same as the car behind it'

and a few others that I had in my head but just went blank :huh:

I'd rather hear about Hamilton than Button though....seeing as how I have to listen to biased commentary on at least 1 pom...

i hope it doesn't go. Albert Park is one of the best circuits on the calender. it has everything from the high speed stuff, slow corners, flowing chicanes and provides great opportunities for overtaking.

however, i'd like to see what the QLDer's can come up with. i hope its not just the Champ car circuit or something similar, as that would be boring in an F1 car (by comparision to Mel...)

I love Murray and respect him greatly, but his time has come and gone. It would be like Hakkinen coming back and running midfield....

ROFL!!! at James Hunt!!! Love him or hate him, at least he created opinions!!! Great personalities from that era, Hunt, Lauda, Villeneuve

Martin Brundle is excellent and James Allen is at least bearable. I miss Crompton.

One thing I am surprised hasn't been brought up more in this thread. No more traction control 08 onwards!!! I have long said this is the solution in F1........next year will show if I am right or not

Not mention well founded, as much as Schumi made a few mistakes in his career, he was very gifted, very quick and had more cajolies than the rest of the grid put together. His only worthy rival, Senna aside, was Mika, I really liked Mika, but I love Michael. F1 will not be the same without him, much rests on Kimi and Massa now for Ferrari's prestige and overall future..

went through the last couple of pages and couldn't find anything so i hope this isn't a repost.

Spyker are taking STR and Super Aguri to court over the customer cars.

Officials have confiscated parts from Toro Rosso in Malaysia to compare with the Red Bull car.

can't see why spyker would waste their already small budget on a big court fight with Honda and Red Bull.

The reason Spyker is taking them to court is so that both teams do not qualify for world championship points at the end of the season. Thus moving Spyker 2 places up the table to finish 9th in the constructors championship. This place is worth roughly 10 million pounds more to the team as a reward by FOM.

That i would suggest is quite a lot of money to the team as their budget would be significantly smaller than most/all the teams. I personaally think they have a point and hope that both STR and Aguri are banned from points.

Yes he was a good driver and yes he had some stones on him but by saying "as Schumi made a few mistakes in his career" completely glosses over the insane and downright dangerous behavior of the man. Your trivialising the fact that the man insanely tried to take out two opponents in season finalies with what can only be described as 'severe brain fade'. But this has already been covered and everyone got to express thier feelings so ill spare everybody having to relive it.

Also i think as a shumi fan your projecting itv's and hence your thoughts on the rest of us. Im sure many people have had enough of listening about him and his team and will be more than happy to see the backside of him so that we can get back to the good old days of F1 were the sport recognised more than one great champion at a time.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
