I'm a little on the fence with his return. Sure, I do like the bloke, and think he is the second best driver to ever steer an F1 car (behind Senna of course :)), but I think that he should have left his career where he finished it in 2006. Although a driver of his talent will definitely be at the pointy end of the WDC title.

Hopefully the McLaren boys can hand it to him! :D

dont forget to root for one of our own as well... has everyone forgot mark already.....

Of course we haven't forgotten Mark. He has a seat next year, and hopefully is as competitive as he was this year.

Obviously if a 7 times champion returns to the sport, it's going to generate a lot of news.

Bought my ticket for next years race. Row A in the Jones stand, pretty much directly in front of the corner.

Seems us Vics may have to pay more for next years race too, as they have yet to secure a major sponsor after ING pulled out this year because of that Renault bullshit.

If i am around i will be going, only thing is after watching F1 in Malaysia last year i would seriously suggest that you save the extra few dollars book a cheap flight and go to Sepang. Viewing is awesome with a view of 1/3 of the track plus a big screen, all for $500 for the weekend. (Fri free) That was the second most expensive stand, which i think was better as the pit lance building obstructs too much of the view.

And its a good weekend away! If others are interested in going shoot me a PM

I think there is a strong chance i will be doing Sepand and Shanghai next year because work will have me in that part of the world again

I could be interested in that Bris, if you have the time to throw some rough package prices at me (tickets/accom etc)..

I shall be there in Sepang Roy! Will be heading back from the HK sevens and am hanging round KL for a few days in order to hit up the race. Should be good! What area do you suggest sitting in for the best views?

Went to the Singapore night race last year and loved it!

Bets bet is to sit at where the 15 is, but not facing the pits. You get a great view of the cars coming down hlaf way between 8 and 9 and you see them all teh way up to the turn in apex for 15. And you havea screen in front of you as well as the big position tower showing the positions all thru the field. Also great as you are in a sense in the infield so out the back of the stand you have toilets and food and drinks!

Yeah, it's bullshit. If his ban has been overturned, they should also refund McLaren's fine from 2007, as well as their constructors championship points aswell lol.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
