Does anyone know if this weekends Brands Hatch Round is being covered at all by TV??

I love the set-up for the A1.

For those that don't know - its 25 countries competiting (Including Australia).

Qualifying is done in four 15min sessions where every car has to perform 1 flying lap (and 1 only) in each of the 15 min sessions and final qualifying is determined by the agregate of the best 2 lap times of the 4 posted for each driver.

The race is split up into 2 races. Firstly a standing start race with the order based upon qualifying. Then a second race which has a rolling start with the starting order determined by finishing order from race 1.

Both races score points and its on a 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 scale.

Given all 25 entrants are in identical cars, and given the format I can't see how it won't be sucessfull.

Still no idea who is racing for Oz in Round 1 but I hope it's one of the Wil's. And as I said - hope its on TV!

You know what, I've never been to a race meeting I wasn't racing at, but this I think I will head to.

Can't wait to see it, I love single make racing. I hope it really snots F1 globally, and well done to these guys getting it off the ground when everyone thought it was a joke.

Now, 1 problem....I don't have pay tv....can anyone record and rip it?

      ER34 RB25DE Auto - Would a flush ever fix an "A/T" light?

      By thatjawncrazy · Posted

      interestingly enough, i found out the answer is yes. doing a flush did fix my recurring A/T light. it might have been because of the trans filter: but that doesn't really make sense to me. the fluid/filter was super dirty. would that increase the pressure in the lines and trigger an A/T light? does the car even have a way of detecting that? i have no idea. i've done 200+ miles after the flush and no A/T light. if my A/B solenoids went bad, i would think the light would've come on. shifts and drives way better now though...at 2k rpm instead of 2500...no hesitation and downshifts when i want it to.

      I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD

      I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real

      Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.
