Too happy looking. But I guess the Japanese is all about being too happy, considering their suicide rate is so high :bowdown:
I wonder if the could even bankroll Super Aguri. We should all write to Nintendo to tell them to bankroll at Super Aguri!!! :bowdown:

good thoughts on 2009 regs by Ross Brawn:

one of the parts that caught my attention though:

And the type of car we're trying to have should mean the cars can follow each other. And we have an adjustable front wing so when a driver gets behind another front wing, he can adjust the balance of his car so he doesn't lose the aero balance in the corner when he's following another car.


WHAT?! i just had to glance over the 2009 regs again and

3.15 Aerodynamic influence:
With the exception of the cover described in Article 6.5.2 (when
used in the pit lane) and the ducts described in Article 11.4, any
specific part of the car influencing its aerodynamic performance :
- Must comply with the rules relating to bodywork.
- Must be rigidly secured to the entirely sprung part of the car
(rigidly secured means not having any degree of freedom).
- Must remain immobile in relation to the sprung part of the car.


anyone know what ross is talking about w/ regards to adjustable front wings in 2009? or is this just what he thinks should be done?

Sounds lke what he wants to see have happen, since he talks bout what the purpose of the 09 aerodynamics are supposed to accomplish.

its my trusty workhorse toshiba tablet.. scratched to hell from before i got a case so i want to repaint..

did you wetsand between coats + spray in a booth?


Nope. A couple shots of spray in the garage one bored rainy night.

You are putting too much thought into this. Once you've taken it apart once, you will be able to do so much easier at a later date. No matter what, It WILL chip, and you will want to touch up at some point.

Also, the Shell stickers start to wear, so at some point (the next years set probably) you'd want to re-do the livery :-)

looks like dennis isnt only using the mcboom to exact his revenge
Ron Dennis has vehemently denied suggestions that he could be the unknown figure behind the covert investigation that triggered the Max Mosley sex scandal.

Mosley, who faces a confidence vote in his FIA Presidency next month, recently openly questioned the origin of the News of the World revelations.

He wrote in a letter to FIA affiliates in April that he had been pursued not by the tabloid newspaper, but for "reasons and clients as yet unknown."

The scandal aroused suspicions that Dennis may have ordered the investigation into Mosley's private life, in retaliation for the devastating 'spy scandal' and penalties of 2007.

"I categorically deny that I have anything to do with the News of the World's investigation into Mr Mosley," Dennis, chairman of the McLaren Group, told the Times.

He also denied that 'anyone' connected with his company, or anyone acting on his behalf, had anything to do with the revelations.


Dennis has written to Czech Automobile Association chief Radovan Novak, who recently intimated on Prague radio that the spy and sex scandals may share Dennis as the common link, for a clarification of his remarks.

Dennis confirmed that he is looking for Novak, a close ally of Mosley's, to "withdraw or correct" his statements.

It emerged just this week that Mosley has engaged an expert detective agency, Quest, to identify the source of the News of the World story.

i also thing if it had more races, it would feel like Nascar/baseball/football/basketball seasons...
a game all the time maybe even a lack of interest since it's basically ALL the time... i think it would lose it's excitement...

Good point, the wait is part of what makes it fun. I think 22 races would be a good balance...especially with weird ass street races around singapore and india.
