Might be too many cars for 1 grid me thinks!

nah, most of those new teams will get knocked backs this time around. probably only USF1 make it in. and I think marco means 2010 as 2009 is half way over...

to be honest all the politics nonsense detracts from the sport, not adds to it. I like the races, the drivers, the cars and the development behind the cars. but all the bullshit arguments is boring as hell.

The 2 stooges who think they are making the sport better are actually making it worse !!!

Mosely and Ecclestone bunch of old hags should just drop dead already !!!

I seriously hope ferrari and other teams pull out if the fia have there way, then watch the viewers go down by a massive margin.

I don't see why FOTA can't replace the FIA entirely and govern the sport itself... just my 2c

Max has just nvoted them to do exatly that....and you know what, I think it would be great to see it happen. Coupled with the major teams having sister teams using the same chassis, with no testing it means the data can be shared with the sister cars....and same team/engineering costs can be shared accross two teams and sponsors and give us grids of up to 26-28 cars

Ferrari will be competitive for sure and I would like to see nothing more but I expect Brawn to be still the ones to beat.

Max thinks the 9 teams united under FOTA can break away and create their own series.... I say he's calling their bluff! Max is a fkn tosser :)

Not sure if it's been posted here but www.jamesallenonf1.com has great insight on F1, the ex ITV commentator. Never liked him as a commentator but he has some awesome opinions. I tip Red Bull for this one, but ahh so hard to fault Brawn. This season is gonna be boring soon...

practice 2 on now. Vettel has stopped on the track after damaging a gearbox or driveshaft on the kerbs.

it'll be a big job for RBR to get him back on the track and up to speed for the weekend. i presume they are keen to get data on the new aero gear so having him sit on the side of the track will be pretty disappointing for the organisation.

the track seems to be pretty green with lots of drivers going on off track safaris.

Well i need to believe that Webber is the king of understatement, so reading hsi Friday report i am thinking he has plenty of car under him and looking at a good quali run. P3 today will help paint a better picture. With Vettel's engine drama it looks like luck the past two race weekends has swung Webbers way, hopefully that equates to some momentum and Webber puts it on the front row.

No doubt Vettel is a gun qualifier, but i cant believe that Webber sint good enough to pull a lap sooner or later.

The dark horse for the weekend will be Massa, Rubens, Massa and Webber for the podium. Not sure of respective positions yet

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
