Wuh, what? No one has the pace of the Red Bull's. It is going to be boring as fk.

Also why didnt channel 10 show the Can Am during the Melbourne GP. W@nkers.

There were Can AM cars at the Melbourne GP....... or do you mean they aired it while the GP was on?

I'm not sure, I saw it live :)

Bernie now changed his tune? what a suprise

http://en.espnf1.com/redbull/motorsport/story/104448.html

would anyone actually listen to what Marko has to say?

That photo Roy brings back bad memories,was at marks minardi 5th in melbourne and reckon ive watched 90% of his races,not sure if im too bias,but gee when is he gunna get a long run of good luck????Remember when he put the Jaguar on the front row,was soooo excited,then you know what happened,mmmmmmm.Hes got the talent,skill and fast,just needs that WDC.Couldnt imagine F! without him.Fingers crossed,this could be a good year.

They didn't show them on the tellie because there wasn't time in the 30 hours of cross promotional shite channel 10 put to air. Useless fkrs.

Just watched the race.
Awesome driving by Mark.

Lol at Maldo..

Poor Alonso..

Mercedes, awesome drive.

Vetel... no comment.

Was a difficult week to not hear anything F1 related hahaha.
Literally everywhere I turned.
Morning news, morning drive to work on radio.. afternoon drive home..
Saw it on tv at midday today at the gym even.. sigh.

Will probably buy a multi 21 shit for next year if a better quote doesn't come up.
Or buy one for quali and then race day.

well in one of the two races anyway... when the lead Ferrari was out of the race after the first lap, the Mercedes were keeping pace until they started runing out of fuel, and even McLaren were basically keeping up until they hit trouble of their own making again. And that was after the first race that Kimi ran away with, Force India were fast and Ferrari finished second. Bit premature to say no-one has the pace of RBR and its going to be boring as fk!

besides, if you listen to the drivers, you're not seeing anyones' pace in the race. They're all saying they're driving around nursing tyres at about 80%.

I disagree. He just genuinely doesn't give a shit. He wants to race and that's it

This Pretty much. Why he is so much happier at Lotus (and its showing in his driving at the moment)

Its not all about raw pace. Tyre life is playing a bit part this year. Red Bull are one of the worse off teams with tyre wear and it may cause them to do 1 more pit-stop then some other teams. And as said, I would hardly say their pace is far and above anyone elses. Mclaren wont take long to bounch back, the Ferrari is starting much quicker then last year, Lotus have improved and Force India have shown they can mix it at the front given the right circumstances. IMO its going to be a good year

Seems to be. I read an article not that long back that suggested RBR are well ahead of the other teams (other than Ferrari) and its mostly in part due to Horner who it seems is quite the wheeler dealer. He was the only team manager F1 fella to attend Bernie's wedding and talk is he was the mole in FOTA who used to sing to Bernie. All of which has helped RBR win favorable terms with FOM

    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
