How much was accom? Or are you staying with someone?

Albert park hotel cost a fortune on grand prix weekend (for obvious reasons lol) as did most other places near the track. Ill just get a tram with all the commoners

staying with a few ppl so split accomodation. Payed for it like 8 months ago so cant remember or look it up easily sorry

Less than $600 for 4 nights

Black and silver mclaren = awesome!(But not as awesome as a white and orange mclaren).

Nowhere near as awesome as papaya orange McLaren like they are supposed to be. Got an old Hakkinen MP4-something in the traditional orange livery when they occasionally ran it in pre season testing. Much better than the puke chrome stuff and the old white/red lung cancer fan club colours.

stop it

i dont need to know how far backwards we've gone

you'll ruin my already low expectation having weekend

I'm going in with low expectations too, here's hoping it's not justified..

I miss the old silver/black hakkinen colours..

    • Bumping this thread yet again, has anyone ever tried putting yet another vacuum regulating valve on the hose that goes between the turbo inlet? Something local owners have mentioned is the Radium breather pipes de-restrict the valve cover but it actually produces an undesirable outcome in practice, way too much air is sucked out of the crankcase and a ton of oil comes with it as well. As far as I can tell the PCV diaphragm in these modern euro wet sump performance engines is active during boost as well, there's just a check valve to block boost from entering the valve cover and crankcase as there's no inherent check valve function in these diaphragm-type valves. Hopefully I'll be able to try some of this out soon. The Volvo XC90 4.4 V8 has a nice external version of these things.
