Thats laughable considering all the BS we have had to put up with over the past 9 months!!

its all becoming a HUGE joke at the moment, the main race seems to be who can get to the press the fastest now not the finish line.

They need...no...desperately demand a good show - for our sakes let me remind you - and a penalty for LH will add up to a grandstand finish with 3 dirvers going toe to toe for it in the final exciting chapter!!!! Great for ratings if your a follower of Friends, 24, Prison break etc etc etc ..

looks like the FIA is taking a chapter out of the VESCO book on how to rig a final round!!

pretty sure the lights were still on on the safety car at the time of the incident....

to me that pretty much makes it clear that hamilton was driving like a f**k wit (especially given the conditions) when he had absolutely no reason to be heating tires or brakes as the lights were still on and the safety car obviously wasn't due in yet...

Hope he gets the penalty he deserves, especially considering Vettel has been penalised 10 grid spots for a crash that came about because of eratic driving by the race leader :thumbsup:

I agree with M4gtr on the whole 'FIA are in it for ratings not racing' pov, and yes, it is full of s*#@. However, firstly, it is inherent given the Bernie/Banks/Mosley set-up... Do you really expect the heirarcy aren't going to íntervene when necissary' in order to maintain profits and popular appeal? I'm sure you know that in particular is a major factor? As far as I'm concern, F1 should never of been owned, nor should it ever, fact is however, it is... After Alonso's 'blocking penalty' at Monza last year, I will say I do see your point about total lack of partial judgement within the governing of race weekends, on this year's spying scandal, the jury is still out..

On the 5 car lengths thing, if it is a rule, and Hamilton did not adher to it, then it is legit, as it, be it directly or indireclt (depend on pov), it caused an accident. Remember all those stop-goes and drive throught between 2002 and 2004? Between Ralfie, Montoya, Schumi and co. When they all went argy bargie for a few weekends there and the pit exit line shenanigans??? These rule violations happen, deal with it, it is entirely a driver's resonsibility to pilot the car in acorrect manner that is entirely adherent to the rules and regs.. Simple as that..

Looks like a 10 place grid penalty may be on the way... that'll spice up the last couple of races

My intrest in the rest of the season is back on track

Well I noticed a couple of things.

1. The piss weak folk at FIA/ITV had their coverage removed from Youtube (the bits that missed the incident). Bit rich for them to use someone elses for their own purposes then, really.

2. Lewis was was over the right hand side of the track near on level with the safety car. Webber was on the other side & only a couple of car lengths behind the safety car aswell. Sure, Lewis was driving erratically (& should be fined and/or slapped about for it) but really I don't think they can pin Webber's accident on him.

backflips... not once but TWICE in two successive days!

he is the toughest guy on the grid, no doubt, and that manly chin cleft of his must pull the chicks no end. Not when its covered in spew mind you...

Vettel is getting pinned to remember… seems like apportioning blame to everybody equally is what the FIA is looking to do

So fking up your career prospects isn't penalty enough?

I want to know what happens when they give the whole grid a 10 spot penalty. Got to happen sooner or later.

sebastien, please try to choose your words more carefully next time....

"I was looking to the right and I was sure he (Hamilton) was retiring, there was no power anymore and yeah, all I can say is that by the time I looked back I was already in Mark's rear end so..."

I dont think mark likes you being in his rear end, lol :):ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

oh and check out these typical webboisms...

Q: And is that something you will bring up say, in the drivers' meeting?

Webber: Yeah. We'll talk about it, waste a bit of oxygen and move on.

...when asked about LH handling the SC,...

Webber: I think he did a shit job behind the safety car. He did a shit job and that's it.

Webber: As Fernando just touched on, it's the game we are in. It's not lawn bowls, it's F1.

hes such a champ, even if his best result is only 3rd. :D:P:)

haha, yes I know twice. that's why I said "driven after doing 4 back-flips over the fence" meaning he flipped but then went back into the car and drove it and flipped it again!

and that lawn bowls comment is pure gold. F1 will be much worse off without an aussie on the grid :D

What do you mean get over it... I'm still not over Michael Schumacher...

*hugs Ferrari teddy bear*

Well this may help.

Ferrari make more money from merchandise than they make from cars.

So they have more in common with, say, Mattel than with Mercedes.

Does that help?

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      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!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      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.
