perhaps they didn't consider people to be so lacking in ethics as to exploit them in that fashion

hence demonstrates the wide difference between obeying the law and the 'spirit' of the law (or rules, as the case may be)

if their gaming of the system last weekend gets Nando across the line for a drivers title this one, then the end, rightly or wrongly, will justify the means

and Ferrari will plaster Alonso's face up in every dealership and milk that marketing leverage like a muthabucker...

regardless of who wins, it was a great season

shame kimi and lewis didnt have a touch more luck to add the pressure on vettel and nando in the closing stages of the year

Has been good. Damned good.

I know every driver has things go wrong every season, but it really seems to me Lewis has had far more than his share of mechanical problems/take-downs this year.

By rights he should be right there with Sebvet and Gonzo as a WDC contender in the final race, if not with a bit of a lead even :(

C'est la vie

Well Coca-Cola have been trying to acquire Monster to boost their market share in energy drinks. There have been some talks between Mercedes and Coca-Cola the past 6 months and some that think that Coco-Cola be it with an acquired Monster or other brand may step up with some major branding/funding for Mercedes. Some have suggested it could be one of the reasons for Hamo jumping on board as it gives him a profile and brand to be associated with outside of motorsport

can't find. :(

Here's the torrent, I'm assuming you already have BitTorrent or similar.

It's two gig, but has the race, plus all the pre and post race bs.

What happened to Schuey?

Pretty much circulated going backwards all race with nary a whimper barring his chop on Button. The slippery track should have suited him. Is Mercedes the new Toyota?

They've sucked since Silverstone where the tyre variability dissapeared. The car is far too hard on its rear tyres, just like it has been for the previous 2 years. The fall apart tyres we had at the start of the season actually suited Mercedes because the tyres didn't last for anyone.

But a slippery dry track is very different to a wet track - track temp is still up, as is abrasion, so tyre wear is still there. Perhaps even more so than normal because turning the tyres out of the slow corners on the slippy track will hurt them more than normal. In qualy tyre wear doesn't come into it and Schuey once again hustled the car into a position it had no business being, just like he's done in the wet all season. But in the race, the tyres just got torn up. They were the only ones who had to stop twice. Conserving tyres has never been one of Schuey's strengths either, so it hurt him more than Rosberg.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
