Yes it's transaxle but it incorporates a spooled diff. But I do agree it's odd that they didn't go LSD.

he was living up to the title of "twat"

And was there no tyres on the side of the wall that Kelly hit? If not, there will be next year :D

Every time time Morris goes to Winton they should invite Tony Longhurst as a tool control unit.

Watched that earlier. Made no difference whatsoever to lap speed.


Ford and Holden just want to continue the current duopoly

Stoner quit. End of year is it and maybe it for racing in any form.

Very high, because it's far too warm for him to be eating an ice cream. He usually only does that when it's raining and cold.

So I took my boy to Sandown on the Saturday & took some crappy shots on the phone.
Then today I notice Google+ has done this to em, very smart & impressive.

Do you know how it works & the selection it uses, I assume it is simply a location & time of day the shots were taken that dictates it???
Very clever!!!

Also here some of the better static shots from the phone.

Sure, there is a good write up on their site as there are a few factors that come into play for what type of auto awesome image it will make for you.

Ive started using it daily as a feed catcher of sorts. I follow a few Android modding communities mainly, Formula 1 and motorsport in general, photography, you get the drift.

Watching race 2 at surfers, saw a massive crash for the aussie racing cars at the back chicane! Any news on what happened?

this is an interesting article from Arse's Favorite Driver.

I dont think track change is the way to go, those chicanes have been around longer than most of the v8 Drivers. I like them.

i think the layout is fine but if they could find a fix to stop people ripping uprights out of their car if they miss a chicane then that'd good. I still miss the old full length track though.

Bollards don't work.

Tyre bundles don't work.

Sensors don't work.

Frankly the massive kerbs only "work" because they break the cars, but some are luckier than others.

If you remove the chicanes, where do you route the track to avoid huge straights into hairpins?
