"Usual no-show" from a guy who has won two races this year is a bit harsh.

you may have misunderstood me

Webber can have exceptional days, Silverstone two weeks ago proves that

but he also has weekends where he may as well not have even turned up. 2010 was littered with performances like that

Consistency wins championships, and his bi-monthly no show doesnt help his cause

On another note I booked tickets and hotels for Melbourne next year.

Jones 4 Corner and Crown Promenade.

was it a package, or did you just do Crown cause its close?

I know what you meant, historically this is true.

If the car setup is out of the window they don't seem to be very quick this year with most top drivers going missing at least once this year when they couldn't get it right. Nando has been the best of the lot so far. Look at Grosjean this weekend and Hamo (excluding their additional pit stops) they were off the pace all day.

Crown Promenade offer two queen beds so good value for me being a little taller and the proximity to the track is pretty good (like a lot of the offered hotels thru Grand Prix Travel).

what did it set you back wolverine if you don't mind me asking ?

Almost bang on $1100 pp including the GP Breakfast, grandstand tickets, lanyards, programme etc. There isn't that much difference between "gold" membership signed up by July 31st and silver after but I am only committed for $500 deposit with the rest to pay Dec 13th.

I will rustle up airfares later and organise shuttle transfers.

There are cheaper packages than Crown Prom but I liked the location and the room was generous.

The Oaks on Market package is bloody brilliant

If anybody is undecided, that is a great place in an excellent location

+1 on that, I've stayed there before (not during f1 season).

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but that gp breakfast is a sausage in a piece of bread and a warm red bull lol. Hopefully they upped there game for next year as well as better crowd management.

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
