Now, Hamilton can drive, I'll give him that, but he's only been a pro for a little while now.

When he started, they called him "The next Senna".

When he overtook someone last year, they called it a "Senna-esqe" move.

Now with the "lie-gate" He's been called a "fierce competitor" who did what he could to win.

Senna WAS extremely competitive, also he was a bit of a prick, but he WAS honest.

After crashing out with Prost, he came out and said he did it intentionally, giving the excuse of being put on the dirty side of the track. Crappy or not, he spoke his mind. He didn't make crap up only to recant later and blame someone else when caught out.

I'll admit I don't watch every second of Hamilton's racing, but I can't remember him passing anyone in the wet, on the same tyres, but Senna did that all the time, many times multiple passes in a single lap.

True, the cars were much more varied, and some would say the MP4/4 and subsequent models were very dominant, but any more so than the MP4/22 ?

Hamilton had a great season in a great car. Senna had many great seasons in average and excellent cars.

Lewis may grow and become a great driver, though personally he wouldn't make my top ten at the moment, but he's still five solid years of results away from being fit to change Senna's tyres in my book.

Opinions?

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
