every sports betting agency now has RBR at $1.02 to take the constructors title. yay

and aren't i going to be back-pedalling like a mofo if Aussie Mark does actually clinch the drivers title...

It will be interesting to see how Ferrari fare for the last 3 races.

They are using their last engine and still have 3 races to go ....

i prognosticate we'll be seeing some scarlet cars towing voluminous clouds of bluish-white smoke along before we get through this season

So really MW must win at Korea to have a comfortable chance. Unfortunatly I can see vetool taking out the WDC and Webz retiring.

Wow. That's an impressive level of negativity. The RBRs have in fact shown extremely good reliability and Mark has proven he has the smarts to race hard without breaking his car. Yes, I know there was Valencia, but his rivals have also tripped over themselves. The difference is that Mark has been more consistent.

Mark is 14 points in front of Vetool and Alonso. What this means is that if Mark can finish second in two races, one of his rivals must win two races and score one point more than Mark in another. If Mark can win even one of the final three, he will almost have to DNF in one of the others to lose, as this will give him a 21 point lead, no matter where his rivals finish. To put it another way, if Mark wins in Korea, or either of the other two, he only needs two third places to win.

I can cut it all sorts of ways, but the truth is Mark Webber is in a very strong position. If he finishes on the podium in all three races, he will be nearly unbeatable.

Of course, a DNF changes everything, but for once Mark seems to have luck on his side.

Yeah, putting in a faster lap than Vetool ... how dare he. All must bow before the Almighty Blonde One!

I dont know how anyone in their right mind can go for Vettel, i feel like breaking his f**king finger everytime he gets somewhere he starts pointing it saying im number one. Yeh number one in dummy spits you freckle faced German flamin mongrel.

When are people gonna wake up, Vettel is not a good driver.

How can you say he is not a good driver? He has won 7-8 GPs! Dont let the fact that you dont like the guy cloud your judgement. I think at this point of their careers Mark is showing he is the more complete driver...but who knows if that will be enough for him to win this years WDC?!?!?!?!

Agreed.

Much as I loathe the little prick, I have to admit he has some talent. Give him a couple of years to develop some maturity and he might make a top notch driver.

Even over the last few races he seems to be settling down a bit, or maybe people have learnt to steer clear of him on the track.

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
