4th and 5th gear through hairpins??

Yeah, media prep must have been, "spin as much bullshit as you can..."

If this was the case, then the engineers fubarred up bad selecting the ratios for the year.

Anyone one interested in Formula 1 and Senna in particular should watch Senna, its a great film and talks about that weekend with ratzenburger and how Senna was speaking about not racing to the doctor at the time

Another reason why I am pumped for Williams this year. People are sayings its more fact than rumour...lets hope so. Awesome looking cars, look reasonably reliable and fast to date....Williams to be the Lotus creeper team of 2014 and will be putting money on them winning a GP this year

The only thing about a potential Lotus fail this year that makes me happy is that Maldonado will fail badly with them.

Want to see Bottas do well

Also on the f1 movie conversation rush comes out on DVD in two days.

If anyone is stuck on a plane there is a one hour tv doco about Hunt & Lauda on most airlines now, along with Rush. Tells the actual story and is pretty good. And when I say pretty good I was stuck on a plane for 7 hours so it may have in fact been absolute shite.

Would be awesome to see the Martini colours out there. I also have to agree with the feeling that Williams will be up the order this year. I may just be hoping that Massa can stick it up everyone with a win.

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
