Webs hasn't done too badly overall. If it weren't for his 5-place demotion he would've been sitting pretty. Decent result today for him I think.

Let's hope our other fellow Aussies can deliver an even better result in an hour's time... go the Socceroos!

agree, seems a bit strange to swap the gearbox out after he posts great times in the quali...

he's in 4th now. I don't know id he can keep the pace up for the rest of the season... I really hope he does

Great race, very exciting. All it was missing was a Hamilton crash and a pussy cat doll jumping up and down in a tight dress...

Yeh, i think Webber was holding on as long as posible knowing he had the option to switch to and needed to amke that stint as short as possible. I think there were hoping that the others had to pit.

But the interesting thing was Vettels problem, Webber with fresher tyres seemed to button it off to hold the gap so eith erhad asimialr problem to Vettel or was told ot hold station. The last few laps of Vettel were 3-5 seconds off the pace and Webber should have had him.... :( Would have put him a closer 3rd to Button.

So well done to McLaren, they are hanging around and now have got the car pace. Can RBR respond? I dont think they will have a chance at Silverston based on the Macs new found speed

"Whats the fastest time of the race?"

Mate you have an ailing car and are in 4th place,

good to see you thinking of yourself and not the team...

Oh wait, that is always the case....

Yep.

Agreed, it was a good race, the 70 laps went quickly.

Pretty good result for the scuderia, been a while since they were on the podium this year right?

probably doesn't want engine to blow, whatever the problem is they'll fix it so no penalty come next race. Probably run fresh engine/gearbox in next race without penalty.

Agree,

What penalty will be handed out for Kubes last sec cut entry to pit lane?

Hammo - Nice drive, as much as I hate to admit it, gotta be gracious in defeat. Mac did the deal, 2 races in a row... On this form they might well take the double this year if RBR don't get their shit together.

Jens - As above.

Nando - Nice to see him up the pointy end again, giving no quarter as usual.

Vet - Not bad, kept a pretty steady ship.. Just me or is he a hard f*cker on the car??

Mark - RBR duped him bad, should've pitted 5 laps prior...

MSC - WTF!!?!?!?! Dude... Get you're sh1t together, how many chicanes you want to cut?? But nice door shutting tho! Reminiscent of Sept 1939.. :(

Koob - Should be replacing Massa at teh Fez. That pit-lane entry though does deserve a reprimand, it was potentially very dangerous..

Strong showings from Toro Rossa and Force India.

Best race of the season fo shizz... Schumy to get a bit of a smack on the bum for some of those precarious moves... Grid penalty next race I reckon. Why no investigation on Hammo for unsafe release??? I think it was pretty borderline, should have at least been investigated...

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂

      Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges.

      I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.

      Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
