Get him in there now and get RB out. Let Senna start off with Brawn right from the beginning.

Slow ass Button can develop the car and Senna can score some points and nudge some tyre barriers along the way.

I'd f*ck off Button and keep Rubens after last year... Plus Rubens and Brawn had a very good working relationship and many years operating with one another. I think under the current circumstances, that will be invaluable.. Also, Button drove like a droop last year.. Rubens did very well for with a crappy car, outscored and outdrove a much younger teammate.. I thikn that proves Rubens is still fit and has fire in the belly! :banana:

I agree, if i was going to give Senna a seat i woudl bin Jensen. He is paid more, through his many years with Honda has never really been able to click with the team and develop a crew or car around him. Rubens did more on occasion then Jensen though i think Jensen was at the end of the day was consistantly quicker, he just was never there to pick up the pieces and muscle the car up the grid when opportunities presented itself.

So i would take Rubens and the cash saving and sell of Jesen, thing is sponsors dont want to see two Brazilians in a team so...woudl never happen. Plus at the moment i think Senna is more name then capability

Hahaha heiki has been bottom of time charts all through testing, by the way button ended 4th in the monday barcalona testing after leading the whole day, we can't be negative of senna just yet, although I do feel that he is a better driver than some on the grid if it's not going to happen now then possibly within next few years, having seen some of his gp2 I'd say atleast give him a go for force India LOL

Also looks like the mclaren cars aren't doing that great in testing

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
