Webber just re-signed with RBR for another year on his contract till the end of 2011 !!!!???? :thumbsup::):banana:

That may be the end of Marks career I think. I couldnt see another team taking him up after that.

Of course it's the end of his career. Realistically he didn't have any other options. McLaren have their line-up for the next ten years I think, Ferrari appear to want to keep Massa and Alonso or replace one with a young driver. RBR are the only other decent car on the grid atm. He may have to keep reminding them he's as good a chance as Vettel to win races, but aside from that it's too late in his career to go to a new team.

I think he only had two or three years left in him in any case. He's 34 this year and most F1 drivers retire in their late 30s (unless you're a 7-time world champion who just can't let it go). F1 teams know that and few would take him now.

He`s Just MADE HIMSELF SAY $10 MILLION :nyaanyaa: for that ,So Let say THE CONTACT is worth that to anythere team so he win`s either way ,

RBR have good car so why not :yes: if was shit like they had been maybe he would look else where,

AGE well chat with Rueben`s about that & look :nyaanyaa::rofl: what he`s driving :yucky: poor bugger ,

Where was MISTER 7 :wacko: not going to well ;)

Mark`s a smart man been in the system & know`s what he`s doing ,

Good move i think,

Bet VERTOOL TO WORLD CROWN will be sweeter :nyaanyaa: for him as well (finger`s crossed for him) as it would be just reward for hard work with all the TEAM`S he has been at :thanks::wave:

Cheer`s Chuckie.

BUMP!

So this weekend they're up in Canada, with a lot of people peggin mcLaren to walk it in due to their top end speed and low drag co-efficient.

Sad to say that I don't think Webber will be in the lime light for this one, unless some F-Duct improvements have been made for him over the weekend (unlikely).

This will be an interesting GP. Lets see if McLaren can consolidate on their new found pace, or will Hamp drive into the safety car in pit lane this year?

RBR, Ferrari and Mercedes will all be trying to keep them honest and you cant help but think this race may spring a surprise with Renault.

The ol' ear nibble and reach around seems to have worked on SV, he seems pretty motivated this weekend.

I hear he was pushing the car pretty hard in P1 and P2 and topping the times in P2.

The LH and JB don't appear to be as quick as expected at this point and this track should really suit them.

its only practice- smoke and mirrors ;)

wont get a good indication until final practice, and even then fuel loads between the teams will be different. IMO mclarens will be front row after quali

I realise that practice is smoke and mirrors but someone at the track reckons SV was pushing pretty hard.

If you believe the post practice comments, LH seemed a bit disappointed in their pace in a straight line.

The McLarens should be front of the grid based on last weeks performance but the changeable weather will make it a lottery.

Man...i thought Webz had it when Hamo mesed up his lap on the softs...but he was able to make them hang in there for a well earned pole. Now will the softs fall apart, can Webz get him off the line...will Webz get a poor start from the dirty side and get chopped by Vettel?? Hell, is there a rule that the car must return to the pits after quali or is there a penalty to having to be pushed?????

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      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.
