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

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
