A good RB25DET neo would be cheaper than building a stroker...which leaves room for paying extra at renewal time and you get the extra torque from day one.
Are you reading between the lines?.....I asked if anyone in the paddock thinks the engines are on par or near par.
Now you are telling me what I think...reading between the lines again.
This is fun but pretty pointless.
I am happy to agree with you 100% from here on because...because...I don't why but I just will.
I love when you get belligerent.
"Our figures" probably means without reference to RBR's compromises to accommodate an engine down on power. Reading between the lines something most of us do including you...when it suits you.
I would expect self interest from both parties to lay off blame and that is exactly what we are seeing. I was reading between the lines rather than just reading the words as written.
Renault have no ability to say their engine isn't down on power because everyone knows it is a significant issue. So they are rightfully or wrongly trying to shift some of the shit somewhere else.
Statements like "our figures" smacks exactly of what I was referring to. They aren't going to release their figures due to a range of factors (and neither are RBR). If the engine is down 80-100hp that makes chassis development/aero a nightmare.....sorta like Newey is saying.
We will see what happens in Malaysia and hopefully the gap closes so we get some more racing for P3-P8.
ps. they are good articles to read because sport is so sanitised that at least we are seeing some push and pull
Those articles read like the FIFA clearing themselves of corruption. Maybe the chassis is an issue but is anyone in the paddock suggesting the Renno is on par or close to par with the Merc engine?
Thanks Scotty, I bought the old man's 2012 335i which is a good car to steer. The refinement, the improved fuel economy, the interior is a bit more up to date but the car is less fun than my old R33 and the Stagea.
After 9 years of Stagea ownership I am out. The Stagea has been passed on to safe hands and should give the new owner years of fun. I'm sure I will be around but thanks to all here who have helped me over the years and to a few who may not frequent the forums any more but I still keep in contact with.
10-12psi and it is always worth upgrading a turbo and intercooler and fuel pump and injectors and engine management and boost control and more but that is a good start to do some searching on SAU.
Thanks Gh05t still looking for a good home.
This is one of the cleanest Stagea's out there with a fresh engine, name brand mods and 2000kg tow bar.
Still looking for a good home.
