goat lovers = goat lovers

the sphincter of the universe = the sphincter of the universe

you need to hang around in the wasteland more to increase your awareness of the interwebs

Lol, just a simple question, kind of appropriate I figured leading up to the next gp. I haven't been hanging round wasteland long, still much to learn have I.

Mmm this reminds me of a joke.

Spiro was muttering to himself....

"George...George had to build 100 houses before he was known as George the house builder. "

"Jimmy....Jimmy had to build 100 boats before he was known as Jimmy the boat builder. "

"But you F*ck just one goat....."

so whos putting money where for the turk grandprix?

usual factors, 2 or 3 stop, tyres, drs and kers... and i rekn its fair to say a few teams will look at webbers last race. and hamiltons for that matter... slower Q1, to start mid flied... no 1st corner issues really if your on the ball,

more options for tyers during the race.

can someone explain how this may help if its a wet day? say its dry for qualifying and a wet race. how do they work it out with tyers?

massa seems to do quite well at this course and is very consistent...but seems to be rather fired up in the 1st few races....

webber does very well on tighter twisty tracks... hopfully he will get up in the top somewhere...

kobayashi looks good too i think

the next 2 races for vettel will hopfully not be so easy on him, throw a few more people in the runnings early in the year :)

redbulls new F-duct system could throw them right out infront if it goes to plan... was well proven with hamilton and button last race!

**counts down to monaco!!...**

I find it f**king HILARIOUS that the same people that are openly smoking Senna's pole are the very same people that can't wait to crucify Schumacher.

I guess it's ok to openly admit to causing accidents and taking people out of races in order to win a race/championship, so long as you die in a race at some point.

There is a big difference between them, Senna never pushed anyone into a wall at near 200 mph like schumacher did last year.

Also never seen schumacher do this.

Its not that anyone was a more skilled driver, or who punted who of a track whenever

Senna was just better to watch

It is much of the reason why i have grown to really appreciate Hamilton. These guys really know how to make it interesting. Its something guys like Button, Massa, Kimi, Hill, Prost, Mansell... even Alonso i suppose... didnt/dont have.

Theses guys are all great to have in the sport and its sad when they leave. They all bring something different and exciting to race weekends, but its guys like Senna that you everybody really remembers

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope! 
    • I spotted a black C34 in Mittagong this morning!
