But Flavc is the man..i mean he boned Heidi Klum, knocked her up and then dumped her. So he gets my vote for being able to walk away from her...something most will kill for :rofl:

Depending on who you fly and when you book, airfares will be under $1000. Tickets will be $600 and then accom, meals and transport will be about $200 per day. Of course you can double that in the evenings on the drink...last year i was drinking with some kiwis who worked for BMW-Sauber...funnuy night! :)

I realised last night whilst watching the Abu Dhabi GP again, that the worse thing with having Homo and Button in the same teams is their fathers, now the BBC will have a camera crew permanently stationed in the McLaren garage, and we'll get to see the reactions of both these tools to any minor happening.

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

"There's only one driver other than Michael Schumacher out there that lives, breathes, sleeps, eats Formula One 110% - and that's Mark Webber," Paul Stoddart.

yeah agreed. I would love to see Mark get a WDC this year. Hey, he was not that far out last season and it was a pretty tough season. GO MARK!

I also agree with the paul quote. mark is definitely a man who made things happen for himself almost purely through drive and determination. he was not necessarily the most talented bloke out there, but he certainly trained and practised the hardest.

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.

dunno about that. it's kind of a technicality. McLaren is after all a licence holding team so under the rules they can be punished. this ruling effectively stated that the FIA and the WMSC did not have the right to level this kind of punishment on a 3rd party individual as it would be akin to having them blacklisted in their chosen profession. I still think it's bullshit though. He should have been banned. The penalty fitted the crime.

lol, he was already stuck on his own as no one wanted to sit next to him as he dripped with sweaty back and armpits!

though he is quite a handsome bloke. I can really see why heidi klum would let him do nasty things to her.... I wonder if he works out?

this shot was probably him having a shower after a hard day of sitting still at a pit wall telemetry screen in the shade... sweaty work that.

Hey piss off people...you are taking pot shots at my hero, I mean it may take me to being 65 until i have enough coin to bed a babe and i need to believe if i am fatm ugly and generally suffering from a bad attitude that it wont stop me from scoring the sort of girl i used to bat off to at age 14 :blink:

    • Fark what are the changes of that snapping like that, clean. Nek minnit, custom radiator goes in, with built in oil cooler like those discontinued PWR ones from yesterdeacades ago
    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
