Dont't know if its been mentioned here before, but I heard a disappointing rumour on Monday that TEN is moving F1 off the HD One channel and moving it back to chl 10 :( It will still be live but I'm pi$$ed that it won't be in HD.

Apparently now the packers have a stake they are moving all sport off of one to make foxtel the place to be for HD sport broadcast :rant:

Not that most of us seem to watch the One broadcast now, but what I said above seemed to be confirmed last night :( Pretty sure I caught one of the One team mention that the next race will be on channel 10 not OneHD.

The hosts must be frustrated as well. I mean the amount of breaks and rubbish they have to present. The are car nuts as well and bet their hands are tied. Its such a crock that they dont just do a 3min intro and then go to BBC or Sky coverage for the WHOLE event, pre and post race as well as practice and quali sessions. But Channel 10 are failing in all ratings and cant help but think a clown is calling the shots over there

I actually like watching most of it on OneHD, as it is HD.

Have skynet running, but big screen f1 is better than small screen better coverage.

I loved the fact DRS didn't really work here this year. We had a good old fashioned fair dinkum race, and it was a corker. Pretty much proves we don't need the artificial DRS passing to make F1 good.

I think the smart money is on Hamilton winning the WDC this year, even with the competitive nature of 5 or 6 teams the fact is Mclaren appear to be consistently faster, assuming Rosberg doesn't steal the show again...

i think button will be the more consistent of the 2 mclaren drivers this year. if hamo does happen to get a good run, i think he will fold under the pressure. that is assuming he doesn't find someone to replace massa as his dodgem car buddy.

Don't see Niko being too much of a wdc threat. Honestly, webber will be more of a feature this year, this years tyres seem to suit him much more than his teammate

yeah webber is adapting better.

the groups CFO must be devastated

that's equiv of police fining me 5¢ and no points for running red lights :laugh:

they probably just went and raided the ash tray of the transport truck to pay the fine.

Problem though - it wont be HD if it ends up on 10

God damn greedy media moguls, Australia ripped once again

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
