fking go webber! cop that all the clowns who said he was a hack. just like most of the drivers there, at the time he was in the best car he was able to get the best result (well 2nd to teamate in the same car). if anything his drive was more impressive than vetts as vetts drove the whole race in clear track which is a BIG advantage in the rain. webber spent time battling with button etc and stuck in spray and for once didn't bin it and made some nice moves. troy is right, he needs to cane vettel next race though if he wants to be considered as a top driver, not jsut an average drive in a good car (like hamilton for instance... lol).

Driving at the front in a wet race also means being the guinea pig for grip levels, so put another point in Vettel's corner...

Seeing how last weeks race went i had one of those lightbulb moments

I think this is what bernie and his sidekick max where after, because you have to admit F1 has gotten more exciting this season with brawn cars, diffuser, kers, aero, slicks.

The usual ferrari and mclaren arn't in front, its now turned to the teams which where running mid to lower table last season who are in front.

Look at the points table, and last weeks race goes to show, anyone can win the season this year, rbr 1 & 2 is awesome, shakes up the championship shows they have pace and are a winning team

was hoping webber got 1st though, the guy needs a win then i think it will really boost his confidence and he will be a decent challange for the title.

FOR SURE! It does look as though Vettel is pure class and will be able to consistantly be 1/10th quicker in quali, be 1-2 positions further up the track. Thats no blight on Webber....

oh of course not, no blight necessary. Webber's just slower that's all :D

geez, some have a short memory, Vettel couldn't match Webber's pace at Sepang in the wet.....a week ago we could say Vettel needed an apologist. this week is Webber's turn.

more races needed to separate the two.

agreed, and all indications were that the STR F was better than the RBR R last year. and yet webber still showed up vettel on a number of occasions. not just with pace either.

webber will either beat him, or I'll find some good excuses and bury my head in the sand.

McLaren & Ferrari aren't anywhere. Which just goes to show of how little import any one team is to F1.

There's a little difference between not being in F1 and being in F1 and not winning......

If you go to any GP anywhere in the world you will see more Ferrari flags and supporters than probably all other teams combined and I'd say McLaren would be easily the 2nd most supported F1 team. I think if Ferrari and McLaren were to pull out of F1, it would cripple F1 from a spectator point of view and probably also take the 'pinnacle' out of the sport. Some history and tradition cannot be f**ked with.... :)

I dont know, there is a scary amount of BMW stuff out there these days. Ferrari are clear No. 1 but McLaren and BMW are close. I think it also has to do with the colours and the BMW logo, so mug punters by BMW gear because...its BMW and not friggin bright orange :)

Will be interesting to see in Spain in a few weeks, i am expecting a sea of blue, sadly cant get Saturday off work so Bahrain on the telly even though its only 4 hours away

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
