It would have been a mission to fit The Chin in the Fez anyway. Good news for Perez methinks. I wonder how Helmut is coping after calling MW's retirement prematurely.

Hopefully he chokes on whatever black gladius he is deepthroating at the time.

I wonder how Helmut is coping after calling MW's retirement prematurely.

LOL, not going to happen but can you imagine IF Webber gets up this year (still loads of work to do and luck required) if the stories of Vettel-Ferrari 2014 are true then they get to mid 2013-2014 and Ferrari are the dominant chassis and they both take up their option? I would love it Marko would be sitting there with his golden child development drive leaving for Ferrari, a Jr STR driver replacing Vettel and old Mark who has nothing to do with Mark's development ruling the roost at RBR until at least end of 2014 :)

Im wondering what Vetool thinks about mark getting signed on again, and now if mark will start to have reliability issues so vetool can regain the top position this year and mark relegated to the back bench for the rest of the year?

Webber and Ricciardo 2014 huh.

Guys considering jet setting down to the Melbourne GP in 2013.

Any tips on which grandstand to snag a seat in/which ones to avoid?

Jones on race day is my tip.

Fangio on main straight is boring, Brabham is tough going looking into the sun in the afternoon.

^ Agreed.

4 Day grandstand pass is pretty good.

We were on Jones on race day.

The sun on Brabham is hell! Absolutely torture, thank god we had a bit of rain in 2012 (Maybe too much rain).

Especially when you're trying to look at the screen, it's impossible.

I won two 4 day passes on Fangio for 2013.

Waiting for them to be released and then I'll try and sell them for Jones.

yep.. still am yet to ever make a withdrawal from there tho, you use them too yeah?

Yeah, How do you use the multibet ?, It won't seem to let me make multi bets with the F1.

I am the same Lol, been winning but haven't actually made a withdrawal, I try to grow the balance by about %20 a round.

    • 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.
