Well Honda F1 are gone, atm i dunno where that leaves rubens and jensen

Lots of new rules, ruduction in Aero, rear wings width has been reduced, front wings are now allowed to be lower, much like they used to be, expect no more spoon wings :laugh:

return to full slicks

umm

yehhhh haha. Team-wise.... Vettel to red-bull I think has happened thats all I can remember atm havent been following off season much

More rule changes coming in the next couple of years but, the sport is gonna get run into the ground there trying to take the speed away from it, the very thing that makes formula 1 what it is

Fixed :)

Agreed

There wrecking the cars, wrecking the speed all to try and increase overtaking.

And now Bernie wants the championship decided by medals! Thats rediculous, how hard is it to kick the retards at the top out and put people in that actually want the sport to continue to thrive. All there cost cutting bullshit has just lead to lots of increased costs to adjust everyones cars and engines.....

despite all that, i'm still looking forward to Alonso kicking Louis's ass, or Massa kicking louis' ass or kimi kicking louis' ass or vettel kicking his ass, or even sutil kicking his ass.

I second that :banana:

I really think there is going to be inadequate testing considering the extensiveness of all the changes in 2009. Should create some good racing.. I hope.

Driver adjustable front wing is quite interesting, especially with an 80hp 'boost' button.

Im very interested to see how 08 laptimes compare to 09..

Go Alonso!

despite all the negativity surrounding the sport with all the changes etc, i think it is also very exciting, for once we will have a championship where half a dozen drivers could give it a good shake. its going to be new for everyone, and will certainly shake the dead wood loose. bring on Melbourne....

As much as id like to see anyone kick Louise's ass the sport badly needs him right now.

God, if ever there was a reason for saying F1 is a business.. There it is.

Imagine owning your own F1 team, even if it is honda :P

70 Something days to go, Who will be in Melbourne for the first race?

I'll be there again...Think I'll invest in grandstand tickets this year too...Any one have any opinions based on experience of which grandstand I should go for?

Why does everyone hate Louis so much? I think he's a great driver. I can't stand Alonso but.

I also heard a rumour that Toyota are thinking of pulling the pin on F1, anybody know about it?

So you like lewis over alonso? :sweat:

When did you start watching f1?

Each to their own, but i think lewis can :):w00t:

you would be lucky to get seats in a stand now, maybe on the back of the track.

we bought the four corners package this year, different stand each day, but we are in shoey stand on saturday and jones on sunday.

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
