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?

im in. i mean they had the least famous hemsworth brother on. not thor or the other f**ker, but some fat shit, that was in a bikey show! wtf? in fact can we all just chip in ten bucks hire a pub and pay Murray walker to commentate/entertain us.

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?

    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.
    • It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it. Have a fish around amongst these hits https://www.google.com/search?q=surface+mount+transistor+m33&sca_esv=9cb49794e0b2005d&source=hp&ei=2vJ5aNjTB7Kw0PEPldnS8QM&iflsig=AOw8s4IAAAAAaHoA6qkfmF6XcygtrZ4Vu9f92NXF_RFd&ved=0ahUKEwjYqIPP7MWOAxUyGDQIHZWsND4Q4dUDCA8&uact=5&oq=surface+mount+transistor+m33&gs_lp=Egdnd3Mtd2l6IhxzdXJmYWNlIG1vdW50IHRyYW5zaXN0b3IgbTMzMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigAUjKCFAAWABwAHgAkAEAmAHfAaAB3wGqAQMyLTG4AQPIAQD4AQL4AQGYAgGgAuYBmAMAkgcDMi0xoAfMBLIHAzItMbgH5gHCBwMyLTHIBwU&sclient=gws-wiz
    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.
