Mark Webber's Williams years provided a favourite anecdote about him, which says a lot about his determination, sense of justice and humour. Like all top Aussie sportsmen, Webber is not immune to a f

I love Sepang and I can't wait for this weekend to come around. Apart from too much rain there isn't much that is going to ruin this weekend for me. If Roy can will the Chin off the line this week, get Homoton and SebVet to tangle and at least one spin from Massa in the wet my weekend with be a royal flush.

right, streaming worked great but next big question time. I'm based out of germany for work for the next few months & I need me some real life gp's. Who's been where & whats recommended? Will be myself & my wife, looking for stands & happy to fly or drive out of germany.

Shattered the german gp's been moved to cologne this year too but will probably still go.

cheers, Tim

Monza is fun but shit viewing and run by Italians so ... ummm. Spa is again not great for viewing as its a big open track though seats on the entry to Pouhon are cool. Hungary is way good for stands where you see plenty of track. Personally i would go to Hungary, German and Belgian GPs...Monza may keep the Mrs happy but without kanga tv this year i think any live gp will be a challenge for understanding the race

But it would be worse then Aus GP for viewing...surely? Thats why I have never gone. All that money to sit in seats where cars blaze by and you see them for 3 seconds per lap? The atmosphere may be cool...but for a single bloke Hungary has a lot more obtainable talent on display

My missus didn't rate Monza. Fawking hot, and the toilets are fkn appalling. They don't clean them until they're hosed out on Monday it seems. Putrid rancid mess.

We had outside turn 1 seating, Pretty good view with lots of action in the chicane...... but post race we left immediately as there isn't much to hang about for as the joint is a fair old mess and everyone speaks this stupid fkn language that I don't understand.

Milan and shopping I thought would keep most ladies happy. Food was good, Accom pretty cheap...but yes, the GP is a bit meh having been to other European GPs and race meets where things are actually organised. You sat where I was meant to but got dicked as they moved the colleciton stand for my tickets without telling anyone and nobody actually knew at the track. Was a joke and a good way to blow $600-800 or whatever it cost

Though I should point out I think there are 4 functioning toilet seats in Portugal. Every damn toilet seems to be missing the seat....and there was one time where I had to build a nest out of toilet paper just so my petite bottom didn’t freeze on the cold porcelain.

I went past - omg.

Ass was hanging our the bottom of every skirt. Unfortunately it got cold and more clothes went on, but at the start of the day it was a sight to see...

Correct on all counts Roy.

I noticed this once in Venezia > I finally found the foot-operated flush lever.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
