Supertaxis 2007


Recommended Posts

You can be damn sure that Walkinshaw won't be backward in coming forward in charging anyone for services rendered.

Question of the day: Who would win in a fight: Kim Jones or Tom Walkinshaw? Or Kim's "mate out the back"

ha ha Tom would drop soft ol' Kim like a sack of spuds (and his mate out the back) :D

Occasionally you see adverts in the Auto Fiction when BJR are looking for people. I always figured that if you listed your hobbies on your cv something like below you would be a shoe in:

Hobbies:

Fighting.

Arguing with my brother.

Watching Russell Crow movies.

My money is on the Jones boy - he is match fit....

Can't believe Holden is throwing any cash at BJR, they are nobodies, they'd be better off running in the Fujitsu category against teams of the same level.

Brad Jones should have retired his helmet and continue on as a commentator, that's the only time I don't mind his whining. Kim is just a sad sack and wouldn't even know how to smile if he won the lotto.

its nothin to do with match fit...Tom is a scottish street brawler from way back and the only thing soft ol Kim would feel would be that big shifter in the back of his head ha ha

general complaining

telling everyone you are hard done by all the time

I went to bed last night a happy bastard,,,Frosty putting the thing on poll and smashing prick Kelly's lap record.

Wake up this morning with the news that hes been excluded for cheating. Seems the ignition timing was 3 degrees outside the rules. I'm at a loss as to why there should be a rule on timing,,,I would have thought let them run what ever timing they want after all its their engines.

What is with these Ford teams always getting busted for cheating. Over the last couple of years almost all the top running Ford teams have done it. Some that come to mind:-

1/ SBR wire-gate

2/ SBR balaclava gate x 2

3/ Vodafone rear brakes gate

4/ FPR timing gate

and thats just 5 off the top of my head.

Neil will you be taking your Sports sedan to the sandown round in December?

Yeah! Bignose is such a putz he took the wall and launched back into Frosty.

I think luck had nothing to do with it. Simply trying too hard at the wrong end of the event.

The talent at the front though was great to see. Fast, clean and despite the last round controversy last year Garth was a worthy race winner.

No mate,,,I've decided on a brand new engine package and at best will be running the car in late this year.

ok good luck with the new engine, I'm finally getting to a sports sedan round - always seem to miss them at the rounds i got to.

Todd Kelly has a nice new livery for the Bahrain round

Hopefully Brighty can sort his car out. Some people get all the bad luck

Exactly...Skaife is getting older and slower so he is continually pulling dumb moves in desperation

    • Yes. This engine cost a very large amount of money to build. It's a Frankenstein necessitating lots of custom parts and lots of fabrication and fettling to get things like big ends to clear the bottom of the bore, etc etc. The rods and bolts were supplied by the owner. Hence why the rods were Chinesium. Some lessons need to be learned the (very, very) hard way, apparently. I was aware of the stories going back about that far as well. I just wanted to see if the reality was as bad as the fear.
    • Looks great!  The problem with that brace is nobody can see it!
    • Hi and welcome. What are you planning to do to the car or will you keep it stock?

    • Heaps of historical info on this, a quick Google gave dates back to 2012, all talk about identification markings, dimples, shapes of mounting surfaces, washers, that are concave or something to match the fasteners mounting surface, which ARP states that if the washer, if it uses a washer in its application, isn't the right way around, it can cause premature failure,  even if it was torqued up correctly with whatever lube is meant to be used There is even talk about getting the bolts Xrayed to check the structure, one was about some builder getting multiple sets of bolts, having them Xrayed, and picking from those results Nowadays identical "looking" fake parts, in identical looking fake packaging are everywhere, with all the markings and stuff, the only way you know they are not legit is Xray or when they fail I assume if you don't want fake parts, and don't have a Xray machine handy, is to get them directly from ARP in the USofA, aftermarket rod and head bolts aren't something to take for granted  Imagine building a big dollar build only to find you lunch it because of an inferior fake fixture let go 😫
