Much better!

But that reminds me I need to order a leave me alone I know what I'm doing t shirt before Melbourne.

They don't sound as terrible now that they're pushing a bit harder, still not F1 though

Just wait till the season starts. None of the drivers will use more than 70% throttle because they'll be too busy saving fuel.

I want to look forward to it, but I can't shake the feeling that Bernie has bent this formula over and is giving it the no-lube cavity search for cash. It's f**ked. Gimmick ideas like DRS to "make a better show" - gay. No refuelling on "safety" grounds yet the lack of fuel load as a strategy variable means everyone just tries to ration it. Tyres that deliberately go off and have a narrow operating window means everyone rations this too. Can't drive too hard - can't afford the fuel bill or to have the tyres go off.

JAS-25T you better upload that 2004 vid before I slit my wrists, this season is depressing and it hasn't even started yet :P

Just over 2 weeks until Melbourne...

Watching them cruise around slowly, conserving fuel, is going to be hard going.

Practice 1,2,3 at turn 1-2 will be the highlight IMO the rest is shaping up like a solar car challenge.

I cruise around slowly conserving fuel for work, and i gotta tell ya... it blows

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
