Email from my wife this morning.

we are never buying red bul drinks again....the owner of this team is an idiot.

Oh lawd

My response:

Bahhahahahaha

I love your passion!

Her:

well its true, why would you not help out your driver that is more likely to win the championship? cause his old and they dont think he promotes the drink well enough?

well its not about the drink its about the racing......

bahahaha

Interesting point made in the story. Earlier this year at Silverstone they said if a tough decision had to be made then whoever is leading the championship would get the nod. Seems thats not the case anymore. I still think Mark can get the job done. This weekend you expect Ferrari and McLaren to be strong so Mark really needs to keep his front row form going and hope its the McLarens up there with him...or better yet Vettel try it on with Hamo on the first lap...with Hamo now with nothing to lose

Well if my theory that Webber is best in variable grip levels, where he is as good as anyone in the wet, but better then most as it starts to rain or as its drying out....then perhaps the slick, dusty and oil surface in Korea will help him where he does feel the car under him in slick conditions better then many.

Come on Mark, hope his speed in P2 carries through to the rest of the weekend

I dont get it...why with 3 GPs to go would Horner be coming out and saying this tripe ... http://en.espnf1.com/redbull/motorsport/story/31746.html ?

I think Webber is tough enough to not be concerned and get on with the job...but in a sport where inches matter and confidence / psychology are important why tip the scales????

Come on MARK! Love to see the Mclarens give Seb a chop...need to keep Massa away from the RBRs as Massa will be ruthless when racing the two RBRs

As much as I think Webber is a bit bone-headed at times, he has improved this season (aside from using Kovaleinen as a launching ramp at Valencia). If he's ever going to snatch a WDC it'll be this year and I'd like to see him do that then retire and tell Horner to stick the constructors trophy up his arse. The team have not done the right thing by him and he's still leading.

Vettel is the up and comer and needs his ego stroked - no surprises there. He is a great driver but he is still too young and petulant to deserve a WDC. Lewis just missed out on his first season and I think it matured him immensely, he came back less of a brat and more of a respectable racer and then he clinched his own title.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
