That opening scene from Enemy at the gates has put me off Russian Ferries.

Have you seen where it is?

You'll get a free donkey with every Ferrari shirt purchased.

But it would be epic. Have to do a ferry trip to Odessa afterwards.

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

Thanks guys, have got me thinking now. German gp's pretty much a lock in because I'm here already, Hungary looking mighty tempting too as it lines up perfectly with the end of my contract. British & Monaco are also being considered, could be a great year of watching motorsport! Also keen to try & get across for goodwood but need to check my dates.

Have to be back in aus for August so unfortunately Belgian Gp is out which is unlucky as had free accom with a mate sorted.

thanks again for the suggestions guys, if anyone can recommend specific stands fire away, I'm all ears

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
