two or three?
this week, brasil and abu dhabi?

 

also i guess nico... as i think its the lesser of two evils...

i mean i used to think nico was alright, but his driving this year has seemed like he doesnt want to win...

Whats funny is if Nico gets up the haters will say it was becaise of unreliability. But Hamilton seems to be fine with a WDC from when Massa blew up whilst in the lead with only laps to go.....got lucky with rain on the last lap in Brazil etc.  

Just like when Nico had a throttle problem in Singapore yadda yadda...the more vocal English press gloss over the fact that Nico had problems in the race that he managed whuilst Lewis had problems in practice and quali etc

Anyway, I dont care so do remember all the details. Not like the Webber - Vettel years :)  I almost want Nico to have a DNF due to gearbox failure and then beat him with two wins in the final rounds!

Good race. Many lols.

Verstappen gets a penalty for the same thing Hamilton gets away with.

Verstappen won't redress because he wants third.  Then gets penalised and drops to fifth.  Then gets promoted to 4th which is where he would have been had he redressed.

Then Lauda pours a bucket of shit on him.

Vettel goes postal and gets nothing.  Moves around under brakes and gets spanked.  Good good.

Rosberg looks like he will cruise around in P2 to the wdc.

Hoping like hell the new rules for 2017 will include some interesting racing for the lead instead of p3 at best. Newey looks to be half interested again.

Farcical 1. All those penalties were a joke. As were all the drivers comments during and after the race. 

Seems if they're not handing out 40 place grid penalties they find other ways to keep themselves occupied - in this case by artificially modifying the podium

Bernie should start watching some MotoGP to see what real, exciting racing looks like. Not only is f1 boring as watching paint dry these days, cocksuckers like verstappen get f**k all penalty for shit, while vettel cops it for doing less than verstappen has done 50 times in every race this year...

LOL at Dezz - jilted Ferrari fan. Don't worry they will win again and you will love F1 again. Might be waiting some time though.....


It's actually got nothing to do with who is or isn't winning, the sport is actually boring now. That's coming from someone who still doesn't miss a minute of quali or a race... The moment there is some action, there's a stewards review and someone's penalised...

    • Meh, At 60 years old, I have been doing dumb stuff for much longer than you mate, I am the true King And unfortunately I cannot be a maroon, as I am not brownish red As for not getting ITB's, the plenum intake will apparently show typical gains across the board and increase induction noise a bit, but, have all over less dort than ITB's Cost difference for the extra ITB dorts was significant though, the total parts for the plenum set up is "around" $2kAUD plus shipping, the ITB's were $4kAUD plus shipping, I was contemplating really hard about paying the extra $2k for all of the dorts, but weirdly, some form of common sense, from listening to the platform experts prevailed  As for the NA mod hate by some, I've had a few boosted cars, with all their inherent issues, I'm now looking at simplicity and legalities for a street car, maybe I'm just getting old, and I'm quite happy to spend some of the kids inheritance, 5kw at a time 🤣 And think of all the money I'll be saving on consumables that something with boost needs, like engines, gearboxes, diffs, clutches,  tilt trays... etc. etc. etc. 🤪
    • Haha.  I wouldn't say I am either but I've definitely been around it plenty.  I'm guessing you know the dial in is basically to make a handicap to level the playing field between racers.  The car with the slower dial in goes first and in theory if they run their dial in time and the faster car also does then they cross the finish time if they also have exactly the same reaction time - if you go faster than the dial in them you lose, but if you are too slow there's a good chance the other person will get to the finish line first. I'm normally supporting other cars but they were all pretty dialled and were egging me on to race as well, here's one of the cars I tune (Starlet) which ran within like 1 hundredth of its dial in through the competition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inEBu-d9Gn4&t=69s
    • Where ever the fuel reg gets it reference is what I use to T into for map reference been a very long time so where it goes to plenum/runners I have no idea but never had issues. 
    • What ecu? Same shop every time? Same ambient temperature? If timing is correct then pull plugs and see if lean or rich. Dyno can also read different if they have changed ramp rate or not set tacho/speed properly  
    • I've never done dial in's just straight up, whatever that's called. I'm far from a drag (racing ) expert.
