who'd have thunk button to be a WDC?

stranger shit has happened

Might be a little too early to be predicting.

I for one won't be surprised to see some new diffusers on cars this weekend, at least we might see them Friday.

can't believe rubens didn't get a penalty for taking webber out. which bloody race were they watching. also vettel again fked up and took out the cube and himself. great job sebastian....

i'm with you troy. webbers maiden victory this weekend.

Again watch replay, Kovi gave Rubens a nudge, not much the old man could've done about that mate...

This is just the first race....just think of the final race.........qualifying intervetion, race intervention and post race intervention....not to mention post race intervention intervention!!!!!

Oh this is just too good...

So McLaren has accepted the penalty and has no plans to appeal etc, but does anyone know what has happened?

The statements from both McLaren and the stewards don't actually say what's come to light?

They changed their decision after reviewing the team radio transmissions, but I'd like to know what it's about?

It would have to have something to do with the way in which Trulli passed Homo for them to reinstate Trulli's 3rd place?

Well they said to the stewards "No, there was no instruction, and no, we didn't intentionally let Jarno through."

Radio trasmission acquired by post-race stewards states, "Lewis, let the Toyota past NOW"..

Pretty bloody blatant to me, not much for Ferrari International Assistance there... Just old fashion dishonesty on McLaren's part... Just when I gained a grain of respect for Lewis scoring a podium from dead last... What an ass...

FFS it seems the circus continues from last year :P Would've thought that the stewards (and some race teams!) learnt their lesson last year and would leave the racing on the track.

How is that that racing?

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
