ok, I just caught up. the ol' pain in the neck eh? poor schuey.

man I feel bad for all the blokes who have dropped everything and bought tickets, flights, accommodation for the next few races hoping to see the master race again. imagine how pissed you'd be. book time off work, shell out $5K on tickets etc only to find out you are in for a boring ass race at valencia....

GO WEBBER!

Well i am watching ticket sales for Abu Dahbi and how Webber goes the next few races. I would never have believed in a million years he could possibly be in with a shot. BUT, if somehow he ends up in a position to be battling for the WC, oh man i am so there. Bonus is i am on 3 months holidays from 17th October with an around the world ticket in my pocket so :(

well big buddy, if webber is in with a WDC shot going into the last round I will come with you.

lucky I just spoke to the GF and told her schuey is out as she told me she was planning to buy us both tickets to the singapore GP to go watch him one last time... that would have been a bit of a bummer.

I'm holding out baron.. No retreat! :)

I'm hoping that he might keep on it and see how he pulls up. Could Shumi really pass up 1 more chance to roar up the Eau Rouge in an F1 car???

I've got fingers, toes and everything else crossed he makes it back. I hope Luca Bad is just temporary...

C'MON SCHUMI!!!!

well I'd love to see him race again, but I do kind of have mixed feelings about it, and I did have my thoughts that he may have too. you know there is a small chance that he'd come back and suck at it and that would really put a dampener on his amazing record and career. his average must be a podium about 50% of the times he finished a race or more.

of all the people who've ever retired he is the one I'd love to see come back, but I'm not sure this is the way I want it. I'd love him to sign a 2 year deal or something and try for one last WDC. god knows there was a couple where he was bloody close. maybe he could make up for those near misses.

but at the same time, once it's done. it's done. he had a good run and then retired whilst still at the top of his game. it's the way to go. no one wants to be remembered as the bloke who hung on too long only to become the old bloke back marker with the sore neck muscles... lol.

anyway, forget schuey. he's had his WDCs. come on webber! this is a big a sniff of one as you are likely to get mate. button and brawn don't look like they have any magic pace left to come, as long as you can stop vets taking points off you, and have him keep taking points of button you are in with a big chance mate. COME ON!!!!!! Get fired up old son. TURN LEFT!

im coming too..........

that's the spirit!

imagine the after party for that one!!! webber as F1 world champ... I should shut up now and stop jinxing it. bad beer baron.

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
