you can look into the shuey thing a little more if you want, he tested a late 07 model ferrari with current year spec tyres and was consistently lapping several seconds under current times (not lap record times)

yes, that could because of the car or his neck?

but, shuey is known for his ego and being a champion. he is not going to want to come back if;

the car isnt up to pace or he isnt up to pace.

im leaning towards him not wanting to race as he is worried about being beaten by previous back markers (mark, jensen, ruebens). but meh, id love more than anything to see the man in a competetive car running it up the front he is a legend after all!

he prob would have said no after the first 70 laps or so that he did if he was worried about his EGO.....after those 70 laps his neck was sore for a week....then came the second 70 laps or so and he didnt pull up good either.....i watched his press conference and he was genuinely disappointed.....there is no doubt about his LEGENDARY status either....i would be happy to see schummy race regardless of the results he gets as those points wont be helping MASSA.....

maybe his ego made him want to actually be that quick so he had another dig? not saying its his skill, the man would be a front runner in motoGP if he wanted but maybe there is disapointment in the car?

ive just learnt watching F1 to over annalyse everything, especially when it comes to big teams such as mclaren & ferrari lol.....

yeh like you said, it would be great just to see him out there again, charging into the first corner!

Great effort by Fisi regardless of weight and a big positive for Toyota and Jarno. Should be a good race and I for one am predicting the winner to come from what would normally be considered an outside chance.

been an interesting couple of weeks, and i agree with you about a big change on the top of the podium tonight, tho i think kimi will be there somehwere.

just hope those teams pit crew can stand up to the pressure of fighting for the win (unlike mclaren apparently??!?!)

also, good on rubens for still fighting for the drivers title, looks set to take another chunk outa buttons lead tonight!!

Oh what a fantastic race (of course it is fantastic...Ferrari won :D) Force India IMHO should have won the GP last night....KERS was the only thing that kept Kimi infront of Fisichella....he drove an exciting race....but what about Kimi's start.....Barichello hit antistall and was stuck on the line while Kimi blasted off and took a whole new way of taking turn 1.....onto the run off and after the safety car restart he managed to get infront of Fisi by the power of the magic button lol.....

Brawn are in a bit of stife specially after having Button DNF and Barichello just limp it home with his car on fire in the pitlane after the race......There are rumors that Fisi might be going to Ferrari for the next race in the championship.....that would be a lot better then having Look at me Bad goer at the wheels....cannot wait for Massa to come back...i think they had 6 DNF's

Kimi was flying at the start of the race....so not sure if the restart made much of a difference but when they changed tyres is when it made the difference....kimi was struggling to keen Fisi behind him

sorry mate i haven't looked for a link, im just going off what both aussie and international comentators said during the race? i dare say its just strong word of mouth amongst the pits that they are running off.

there wouldnt be a press release untill they can fit kimi in somewhere

wow wow wow easy there tiger.....mark webbers lollypop man did the correct thing by releasing him early....Webber just didnt get traction....got bogged down and hence that have the Nicko the time to get side by side to him....at which point it became RBR's fault as they should have waited.....Webber and Nicko were fighting for race position....and they were evenly matched as well...plus webber was infront of Nicko....didnt wanna loose position in pitlane...

There is also rumors that Kimi is going Rally driving next year in Finland....Alonso is most likely going to move into the Ferrari outfit....Kimi prob go more rallying....Massa gets back into his seat...well hopefully.....would love to see Alonso and Massa at Ferrari....

      thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...

      Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.

      Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
