i don't think he would have had webber. and I don't think he backed off either. if anything he was going faster after the thinly veiled order to ease up. he just ran out of laps.

maybe they should hold 1 short race a season (no fuel stop, one set of option tyres) as a demo where all the drivers drive exactly the same car, including suspension and alignment settings (some sort of f1 'control' car), and ballast them up so the weights are a dead match, and then we really seperate the men from the boys :)

shame it'll never happen...

They've kind of done something similar with charity go kart events in Europe. Not sure if they still do them but the one I saw in the early 00's had Michael Schumacher out front closely followed by Jarno Trulli with a 2-3 Kart gap to the rest of the drivers.

FIA 2010 Formula One entry list:

SCUDERIA FERRARI MARLBORO - Ferrari

RENAULT F1 TEAM * - Renault

PANASONIC TOYOTA RACING * - Toyota

BRAWN GP FORMULA ONE TEAM * - Brawn TBA

Both Ferrari and Red Bull say they entries are conditional but FIA thinks other wise???

This will be interesting, from what i have been hearing the group that runs MotoGP have been talking and are ready to run a series with the breakaway teams.

if the teams all pull out and make their own championship. All burnie will be left with is the F1 name and logo....and Williams.

Burnie isn't rolling in money for no reason, he'd be stupid to let 90% of the field make a brake away series.

nicee i been wanting this to happen

With those teams gone from F1 i guarantee the new breakaway will be much more exciting.

I bet the F1 under max will be similiar to A1 GP.

Just hope channel ten or HD one will get the coverage for next year.

Imagine the lineup of cars in the new championship

Im pretty sure you will see other teams entering, hoping nissan enter :down::P

would be quite amazing if they get a good line up in the break away.

If it does go ahead (it won't) it will, like every break away series that has ever been, result in a divisive, weakened pair of second rate "championships".

What will happen is that a compromise will be reached. I just hope that Williams & Force India screwed the FIA for all they are worth before they signed on.

As for Nissan - it will never happen. Renault owns Nissan & Renault can barely afford to be in F1. The expectation is that one or more of the manufacturers will be gone at years end. There is a lot of money on that manufacturer being Renault. Toyota is prbably close to leaving too - too much money for no results. They should go back to rallying (just without the cheating). :down:

    • 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!
