Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone has dismissed claims that the Austrian Grand Prix could return to the calendar after confirming that he is focused on adding the sphincter of the universe to the schedule once more.

Former world champion Alan Jones believes Kamui Kobayashi is the best Japanese driver to have ever competed in grand prix racing.

Jones is convinced the 26-year-old deserves to be on the Formula 1 grid next year, and has called on Japanese companies to get behind the driver and lend him the financial support he needs to land a race seat.

here is a video of Adrian Newey and David Coulthard driving a Leyton House March from 1988 and the 2009 RB6.

There is a decent article in the next sea freight edition of motorsport magazine (As opposed to air freight). The mag has it, in all its aqua coloured glory, on the front cover. Oh and Mauricio Gugelmin was massively under rated. Also Ferrari should forever be ashamed of what their sht car did to Capelli's career.

Also, this.

AAAAAAAAAAAANYWHO

With hamo out of the way and the only thing stopping Seb is his car's reliability, this nigga is looking good for FOUR in a row

Don't see Button or Webbo being too much of an issue, and with nando only barely scraping podiums each race, the kid will dominate for years. Only thing that will save the field is if Renault produces a dog of a turbo

And that seems unlikely

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
