I've seen races where they race in rain just like that, but I think what they mentioned being different was the amount of spray from the tyres and limited visibility as a result from the poor drainage on this particular track.

Wow, what a race! Despite rules and regs trying to ruin it as usual!

So glad to see JB win and hamilton get reminded that going for every gap gets a good percentage of wall, Button had no reason to yield to him.

Vettel must be happy, overall he extended his lead over his main rivals, who didn't finish. Now he's on 161 points, with JB on second 101. He just needs a few DNF's and this championship will be interesting again.

So sad that the fia do everything possible to fk the good races. Still a bit dirty about being robbed monaco quali and gp finale's.

Get on exepedia, we got the night of quali and the race for $190 AUD in Cologne. Thats about an hour away from the track and we've got a hire car.

Yeah T12 - nothing special but it's got a screen.

I just bought these for the little one.

cologne is actually a fair hike from nurburgring definitely more than an hour. Troy can attest to that. even in an audi or focus doing an average speed of about 180km/h it's still a hike!

It will be a bit of a mission on race day I imagine. having said that nurburg is a little hick town in the mountains with nothing much going on after the sun goes down (may be different on a GP weekend though with the big new linder hotel there) so cologne will be more fun in that regard. and I'm guessing at this stage it's probably impossible to get anything in nurburg anyway. hope you are going to try and drive the nordschleiffe? though it will be fking packed for the week before and the week after the GP for sure. i imagine it'll be a mix of full on traffic jams on the track and long closures while they scrape bikers off the armco.

you will love it though no matter what. :)

I hope the rumors are true and that Webber might be going to Ferrari to race alongside Alonso. It'll do him good instead of being stuck behind 'the prodigal' Vettel.

Where did you hear that

Is there a link somewhere would love it if were true

I said too late.

It's booked.

I'll try the north loop but don't like my chances.

I think the rumour of Hamilton going to RBR in 2013 holds more weight, but it's just that, a rumour. Webber has been linked to Ferrari before, yet nothing ever happens from it

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      By jez NF · Posted

      Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
