All this talk of next years aus gp has reminded me how bad tens coverage was this year, so should we tell them what we want to see by way of a partition?

the first things that came to my head was...

banning layne beachley from attending the event and never giving her a mic at a motorsport event ever again (and informing her that a race isn't called a match it's call a race).

less interviews with d list celebritys/ people from masterchef and other reality tv stars and more interviews with race car drivers (former or current) and some information/facts about the cars they drove.

no more people from the breakfast show (seriously Paul Henry is more then Kochie) wait..... infact you should put paul in a two seat f1 car, the amusement would go some way to make up for the torture we suffered this year.

what do you think?

two more..

the celebrity races should be conducted under the rules set out by the WANKR motoring occasion.

there should be more close ups of the walk of wimmans, we have a better caliber of wimmans here in aus then our uk masters and we should be doing our best to make them jelly of it.

Just go to Melb for the race, then you don't need to watch 10's coverage. But seriously there is a lot of downtime at the track, hence why they have to pad it out with crap.

Just go to it I'd say. Support the local event and keep it in aus.

If you think it's better watched on tv there is plenty of screens around showing the same shit you see on tv but with a bit more noise

But I'll signe it for the rest of the poor coverage.

Ditto....jump on a plane and come see the race in the flesh and hope to keep the GP here.

Channel 10 are a disgrace and I am sure their coverage will continue to be bad entertainment! Nothing wrong with cross promotion and trying to get people to turn on the box, but bad tv is bad tv....you would think it would be easy to cover the F1 with coverage and info on Aus/Nz greats like Brabham, Hulme, and other notable people like Perkins, Shenkin etc . Show the history the sport and Australian contribution to it....and interview the Australians in the pits working for various teams and show the Aussies behind the scenes!

draft one.

Ban layne beachley from attending the event and never give her a mic at a motorsport event ever again (and someone inform her that a race isn't called a match it's call a race).

less interviews with d list celebritys/ people from masterchef and other reality tv stars and more interviews with race car drivers (former or current) such as Brabham, Hulme, Perkins, Shenkin, webber, Ricciardo and some information/facts about the cars they drove/drive as well as what/who they were up against.

Show the history the sport and Australian contribution to it, interview the Australians in the pits working for various teams and show the Aussies behind the scenes (Sam michael ect).

No more people from the breakfast show (seriously Paul Henry is more annoying then Kochie is) wait..... infact you should put Paul in a two seat f1 car, The amusement would go some way to make up for the torture we suffered in 2012.

The celebrity race prizes should be awarded as per the rules set out by the WANKR motoring occasion regarding prizes.

They're as follows.

First will receive a case of beer.

Second will receive a case of beer.

Third will receive a case of beer.

Forth to last will receive a case of vb........... to encourage them to do better next time.

did i miss anything?

      Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though

      and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.

      Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.

      There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...

      With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
