URMINE,

I hope you were joking, because between Dazza and Jonesy they collectively know dick about what the f#ck is going on in F1. I stay up to watch F1, and these two jokers used to piss me off so much with there inane drivel.

Channel 10 do motorsport very well, and while I agree the Darrel Beatie is useless, Sheene is a legend. I'm sure there will be a marked improvement in the broadcast.

See'ya:burnout:

i doubt it.. fair enough dazza knows **** all but he is just a good character.. bit like murray.. he to knew **** all.. but it makes it interesting..

but to say jones doesnt know anything about f1 .. hahahahhah he is about the only one who does know anything.. always gives a good point of view when analaysing crashes and doesnt talk bullshit.. he was a world champ no one in channel 10 is..

u wont be getting anything intelligent popping out of the mouth of crompton or beattie or any other wannabe champ..

cant get any worse then listening to brudle and blundell or whatever there names..

BRING BACK MURRAY :D

Jones isn't that bad. Technically I mean. I prefer the technical talk over jiberish. Martin's good. But Muzza is still the voice of F1. Will take a few years to get over him. :D

I don't see anyone in the Channel 10 lineup that comes close to Jones. Will have to wait and see.

I have to say murray walker is a legend (voice of F1), he sometimes lost the plot but i didn't mind if anything it was more entertaining.

the only thing that used to annoy me with jones and eastlake is them speaking crap coming back from the ad breaks while the race is going.

apart from the above i thought jones most of the time knew what he was talking about (if an F1 champion doesn't know who would??).

the important thing now is will channel 10 broadcast ITV's feed (Martin Brundle and Jame Allen) or will they have bill woods and barry sheen (or whoever from channel ten) as commentators???

If they get woods and sheen to commentate, then I'll be protesting to get f1 back to channel 9.

I loved to listen to Murray too, but Martin Brundle has a much better grasp of the technical aspect of the cars then anyone else commentating. I too agree that we want the ITV commentary, with Channel 10 providing a brief intro.

I'm sure that Jones does know about F1, but his ability to convey this is not particularly good, especially when seated next to a moron like Dazza.

hahaha that sites a classic skyline33!

Memorable moments from Channel 9's F1 coverage:

- Delays for any Championship-deciding race.

- The 2000 French GP tape not rewound back enough.

- Parc Ferme being cut and pasted, or worse yet, never shown.

- Leaving the 1999 Australian GP coverage to leave for a pre season Rugby League match, getting barely any of the podium celebrations and post race press conference from Eddie Irvine's first ever Grand Prix victory.

- The slow disappearance of Friday practice highlights, late on the Friday night of the Australian Grand Prix.

- The lack of qualifying for 16 out of 17 races. Still the only country in the world to host a Grand Prix, and yet not receive any Qualifying sessions.

- Lack of shots of the drivers and crews on the grid, Channel 9 instead opting to watch AJ and Eastlake mumble about in the studio.

-The 'In The Pits' segment being shown every now and then.

- Channel 9 spending more money (again!) on a new set, when other parts of the coverage needed more attention.

- Lack of visual reports about up and coming Australian drivers. Reporting results is all mad and wonderful, but if your world was limited to television, you wouldn't know what James Courtney or Rob Nguyen looked like.

- Eddie McGuire hosting the Australian Grand Prix coverage.

- Satellite difficulties during races. Happened to often for comfort.

- Lengths of ad breaks, particularly during live races.

- The 2000 Austrian GP, Channel 9 deciding at the last minute to change the telecast time from 10:30pm to 11:20pm!

- Eastlake and AJ cryptically giving away the result of the 2000 Japanese GP, despite there being a pathetic 7 hour delay for those on the East Coast.

- AJ discussing his next adventure, whether it be his auction or his V8 Supercar racing.

- Catching up to the ITV commentary just before the five red lights turn on, because AJ and Eastlake continue to talk, despite the fact that the ITV commentary have been talking for several minutes before the warm up lap.

- Cutting off Murray Walker on his last ever Formula 1 commentary at the 2001 USA GP, to go to a commercial break.

- The 2001 Brazilian GP - the Channel 9 director falling asleep, as ITV went to an ad break, but then reneged, when David Coulthard decided to pit (in what ended up being the turning point in the race).

- The German GP broadcast at 12:40pm. Never mind waiting for 60 minutes to be shown at 8:30pm instead of the usual 7:30pm, but also a 3 hour movie!

- The 2002 Hungarian GP breaking a new ad-during-telecast record, with 8, only to be beaten four weeks later by the 2002 Italian GP telecast, which had 9 ad breaks!

- The 2002 French GP delay, and then showing no podium, no press conference, all for the 7am news!

- The 2002 British GP delay, some seven hours.

aaah the memories :lol: :lol:

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
