  1. I dont think LH would have one the race without that messed up pit stop. He lost maybe 2-3 seconds and when he came out he was about 6 seconds behind Barrichello

    His pitstop time was almost 14seconds, that's 7-8 more than usual. And he would have won because there's no way to overtake that genius, especially on that circuit.


  2. Well he didn't come last!

    (Came 2nd to last)

    And Barrichello won! First win in 5 years. Hamilton was definitely the fastest, but he bad-lucked out with a SHOCKING pit stop - they had the wheels in the tire warmers inside the shed when he pulled up to get them put on the car.. Costly.

    Boring track however. Bring on Spa next Sunday! Amazing track, passing will happen yay.


  3. It happens so fast no lights come on.. Really lurches in 2nd gear when it cuts haha, it's like the injectors just switch off for 0.3 secs, hasn't happened for a week now though.

    Have had a few issues with electrics every since putting solid engine mounts in, nuts must be backing off all over the place!


  4. I must admit, I'd be terrified of the camera punching me in the head with that setup.

    If that's the same Velbon I had, they don't like being mistreated/subjected to largish forces :wacko: Mine cracked at the screw after some urban work I did (arc shots with camera attached, etc), I was lucky my camera didn't come off the tripod!

    Either way, it did work surprisingly well.

    Oh yeah? Haha I got this tripod for free :D and I'm impressed with the quality, I use it a lot with a SLR too. The tripod doesn't move at all when jammed in properly, although I don't intend to test this in a rollover accident..

    At least if the camera goes flying around the cabin, I know it will survive


  5. It is incredibly agile for a road car, I don't know many others that could be driven with disregard for steering speed like this.

    And the track video will be coming Mid-September. Will have power oversteer on every corner of Ruapuna if things go to plan.


  6. My car, on the odd occasion, loses engine power for about half a second while driving. The Tacho drops to zero then the car instantly comes back on. Who reckons fuel pump?

    *Actually, thinking about that more, must be more too it than the fuel pump, the tacho dies too...
