all it proved to me is that i'm right, and alonso is a hack. sure he made plenty of moves, but where did that get him? and how many actually came off? not many.

good work kimi. nice race. and what a change to see they actually let kimi pass massa. I was shocked. not a very good strategic move for the WDC.

yeah, it was a nice move. but it could not have been pulled off without the nice cooperation of nick. had nick not yielded and taken the escape it would have been over for them both. so yeah it was bold, but it wasn't that great as without nick letting the baby have his bottle it would have ended in a "Taku special". the fact that nick got past him again also means it was all for nought.

I just don't rate alonso. he has the best car in the field so it's no surprise he is beating all the other teams. but the fact that his rookie teamate is beating him tells me alonso is not that special at all. he has been fortunate to be in the right teams at the right times with good car, good engineers, plenty of reliability.

Alonso let his frustration get to him, he was nothing but reckless and dangerous last night. Good on Heidfeld for keeping a cool head and avoiding what would have been a nasty accident.

Good on Raikkonen & Massa for a clinical one-two.

..and let's hope those biased British commentators will shut up about Hamilton soon!

yeah, there is no doubt lack of reliability and a poor descision (on MS's part) at monaco cost schuey the WDC last year not. that was what beat him. not a 'better' driver.

If your including decision making.... Hungary was a no brainer.... :domokun:

The best thing that can happen at the British GP is for Hamelton to not finish the first lap. ITV might be banging on about Hamelton, but their still 100x better than the Aus comenators that contunaly interupt.

Well, the forecast if for rain. It's been raining every damn day so far, so we might get a real idea of Hamilton's abilities.

Haven't seen him pass anyone yet. With the local paper coverage, you'd think he's wht world champ already.

The worst thing is the headlines. Here's what I mean:

"How does he Lew it?"

"Thrilled to Brits: Lewis on home turf"

"Hamilton to order out for italian at home." (This one is a bit of a reach)

"Lewis the new Tiger" (In reference to Tiger Woods. I have no idea why.)

There are more every day. When some slapper comes out of the woodwork and claims that she shagged him silly when he was 14, I'll update everyone.

Interesting article about an ex ferrari employee, handing over secret files to a McLaren tech who has been temporarily suspended. Ferrari have lauched a case in a Modena court, so I'm sure the guys will get a fair hearing:-)

cheers

Hey, young Lewis no dount has a good car under him, and no doubt a lot of support from within the team...but you cant discount teh guys ability. And you cant hate him, because surprise, surpride the media are idiots. I cringe when i see poor Mark here for the Aus GP, the questions he is asked by the average journo makes me sick. The average motoring journo is no better. I think barck to Gordon Elliott and Hard Copy :D

all it proved to me is that i'm right, and alonso is a hack. sure he made plenty of moves, but where did that get him? and how many actually came off? not many.

agreed 100%

i don't know how long you've been saying that for, but i thought that even from his 1st season at renault a strong and reliable car was the key to most of his success :)

no surprise Hamilton is quicker than him.

Renault wil be displaying a new livery for the next race, a throw back to the old days

looks shit hot i have to say, unortunately is for display only, no race use

... its only about 11 billion times better than the farce they run with now, why not run with it

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
