Hows about a Motor Racing Section,,,,where Shell and I can laugh our guts out about poor Paul Tracy loosing a wheel nut and crashing out!!!!. Shit that wheel must be light,,,,he threw it up on to the Tyre wall two handed like it weighed 10 kilo's.

Tons more to talk about,,,what with IRL, Cart,,, The Mark Skaife(I used to race a Nissan) rubbish,,, Stupid F1,,,,Moto GP and Super Bikes. Did I miss one,,,,Yea I sure did,,,what about the Rally stuff.

Just a thought...

Urmine,,,the quickest circuit racing cars in the world,,, running treaded tyres, traction control, launch control and no gear shift lever,,,whats next ,,,shit we could take out the driver and run them by remote-control. If Juan Pablo wasn't in it, that arrogant turd Schumacher would win every race,,,even from 2nd.

what u mean if juan pablo wasnt in it?? hrrrmm hrrmmm....

ralf has put up a better fight than juan in nearly every race this year!!!.. and the only reason michael is so dominant is cause he's a freak of nature..

indy is full of f1 rejects.. and when mansell all those years ago went to indy he won the championship first go.. how many indy driver's try to get into f1 ?? and how many go from f1 to indy?? there's a reason for that.. f1 is the top.. if u can handle it, otherwise u go to indy

:mad:

Ralf just sits there waiting for something to happen. At least Juan has a go.

Indy isn't full of F1 rejects,,,,name more than one. I'll admit Mansell did very well,,,,but so would you if were in that team.

Indy's just about dead now anyway and with it's death we lose Turboed open wheelers. IRL will take back over in a year or 2,,,,at least we have a Nissan engine in it.

neil.. i use to watch a indy when it was good.. villeneuve,montoya etc were in it..

ppl like gugelmin andretti christian fitipaldi.. just to name a few failed miserably in the f1..

as michaeal said earlier this year.. f1 isnt about who can do a couple of quick laps and a fancy overtaking maneuver here and there.. its a whole lot of factors.. the reason i cant stand montoya is cause he acts like a rod.. he wants the respect of someone like shuey and hasnt proved a thing other than he can cause smashes with silly overtaking moves.. the fact that ralf is killing him overall this year proves my point..

montoya needs to grow up and learn some respect.. or he will be out of f1 before we know it... however ill admit he has potential but then again so do nearly all the f1 driver's otherwise they wouldnt be were they are..

WE NEED A MOTORSPORT SECTION ! ! !

Now.

Schumacher. Why does everyone hate him so much ? Alot of people forget that you need to be aggressive, arrogant, and straight forward in F1 (or any Motorsport, look at Skaife). Why do you think Coulthard does win Championships.

Schumacher at the end of this will have broken every record bar the all time amount of World Championship Wins. And if you look back at Fangio, you'd see he did it in much more dominat cars then Schumacher, bar maybe this year. (note: In those days a reserve driver could give up his car for the No:1 driver....which happened alot for Fangio).

Another point is Schumacher first language isn't English. Alot of people forget this. YES! I'll admit to be a full-on Schumie fan, and it not only his fans which believe when his done he'll be the greatest of all time. Look at the rest of the grid, there all pretty close, and Schumacher seems to be in front all the time. His amazing.

My I quote :

To beat Michael in equal equipment isn't possible. To do it in a better caris possible. And thats what Hakkinen's done, what Damon Hill has done and what Jacques Villeneuve's done.

Michael's the best by a mile. People still don't realize how good he is.

...Eddie Irvine

I disagree with Jacques being included in there. I think Jacques is amazing. PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE HIM A WILLIAMS ! ! ! ! !

I'd love to see JV Vs MS again.

Skaife is overrated.

Traceys weight slows him down....hehehe

Burns is the King

Bayliss Vs Rossi next year....PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

Last but not least

Go Webbers Go Go Go Go...Toyota next year ?????

Why do people put Hill and Hakkinen down???

As Ron Dennis put it, "You don't go winning championships in F1 overnight."

That's always the excuse when it comes to Schuey not winning a championship ie. lack of equipment. Have people forgotten that Ferrari (until Toyota came along) that technically have no budget? They pretty much spend as much as they can to win.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
