Mark Webber's Williams years provided a favourite anecdote about him, which says a lot about his determination, sense of justice and humour. Like all top Aussie sportsmen, Webber is not immune to a f

Love the Kimi Win.

Car looked like it had the wick turned up for the last 15 laps. Must have been good on tyres. The rest (besides the force india) didn't have the fuel I think to turn it up.

Picked Riccis exhaust issue 3 laps before he retired - sounded very off.

Although Melb isn't a good representative of the rest of the season, the varitey was refreshing. Lotus, Ferrari, RB

Yep was me. Was such an epic experience.

Also massively put into perspective the times the F1's do and even things like their braking points (or at times complete lack of!). In the end I think my best time was around 2.15 so we still aren't anywhere near their times in the wet!

very jealous, would be awesome!

about the perspective...i timed the mazda 6's doing approx 3mins so your at F1 pace compared to them LOL

Weber is a danger to those behind him. Guys retarded.

Noel :- Exactly my thoughts.

Anyone who is positioned right behind him on any grid will be 'having kittens' > working out strategies on "when" to go left or right to overtake.

I once had a client who was on the AIS swim team. He was a notoriously slow starter.

He improved by .2sec off the blocks after

a) playing pinball

b) practising "columns" on a Sega machine

c) playing table tennis

He was still slow though - hypnotherapy only helped marginally - and never represented Oz.

I think you will find an amazing number of drivers who win in Aus go on to win the WDC. From there the constructor that wins in Aus normally goes on to seal the deal

Stoked Kimi got up and made it easy. Made flying my Lotus colours today a lot easier. Shame that Webber, Dan and Romain all struggled. :(

Pasta went off right in front of us FOUR TIMES in the dry of his own accord at turn 1, finally beaching himself on the last attempt

In other news, his freshman team-mate manages to finish in the 'undriveable' FW35 just fine

Please clear off back to Venezuela, n00b

      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.....
