why is daryl beattie yelling at us

him and greg rust they forget there's a microphone in front of them, don't have to yell. f**kwits.

apparently i was sitting near greg rust coming back from melbourne one year. lucky my mate only told me after we got off the plane i would have punched rust in the head if i'd known.

shit

4 months till 2011

what the hell do people do if your not looking ahead to this every fortnight

i'll be thanking various deitys that i don't have to see another ashley and f**kin martin hair loss ad until march.

GUTTED! How Fezz lost it? Webber rolled the dice and at least he had a go. Vettel has been clearly the quikcest guy out there the last few months and the back half of the season shows he deserved it. But real shame for Mark who did it all season...to lose it in such a touch, close fight :)

And young Jessica, no wonder Button doesnt give a shit if he is quick or not!

Well Webber certainly had his chances to pass Alonso when Alonso ran wide, what was it, 2 or 3 times? But he just wasn't close enough.

All I can say is, at least Alonso didn't win :) I was sure he was a shoe-in before the race.

Almost forgot to mention Schumacher's near-decapitation... :D just half a metre to the left and...

Am I the only one that heard beatie call vettel vetool at the end? Wastge only positive I took from that race

As for button's mrs, she's alright but I wouldn't rate her as highly as you guys seem to be. I've been with better looking women and I'm no millionaire F1 driver

I have this kind of empty feeling after last nights race. Ultimately I didn't want Vettel to win it, but the back half of the season he was blindingly quick, and to get 10 poles in a season and not win the WDC there must be something wrong. As much as I class him as the villian, he did deserve it. As for Webber, I thought he did great all season, particularly being able to not only match his team mate, but beat him half the time, as well as the Ferrari's and McLaren's. I can guarantee that he will get a shit-canning in the Australian media this week, with people beating him up over his mistake in Korea, his flight in Valencia etc., but fact to the matter is, every driver makes 2 or 3 mistakes during a season, yet Mark was just totally unlucky in the end.

and hows these cunts form

I swear to the all mighty allah, i heard "alonso predicted he would win the title... blah blah blah" at least 3 or 4 times every race for the last 4 races. They were obsessed by it. And now? Not a word form Beattie and that dipshit Baird. No mention that it may not have worked out for him like he predicted

I think i just cant stand craig baird

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
