  1. 50/50, thats about the odds of me getting through the section without a big accident.
  2. Hi Phil, nice to see another member from Barrow on here, if we keep this up we'll get our own forum, at least half a dozen of us now.
  3. He should have just asked for a 5, thats strict observing.
  4. I did click the rate this article, 1 star pity i didnt go lower, seems i'm the only 1 to vote so far.
  5. Put me down for a copy of that, the 5mins was excellent cant wait to see it all.
  6. Eurosport are showing 30mins from this years event at 7.45pm tomorrow night (sun) incase you havent already noticed.
  7. You could try uploading it to a free webspace place like boxnet Or this one seems easy enough here
  8. I cant get it to work, is anyone else managing to download it?
  9. Pity, its had 31 downloads of the torrent already
  10. You'll need a program like azureus, a quick search on google will give you all the info you need, once your set up its so easy to swap fies between people all at the same time as well. It would be good to have a few on here swapping great clips like this one.
  11. Thank you, i've found the torrent but your not uploading.
  12. Do you know how to create a torrent? Then we could all share you file. If not look here.
  13. If you try this dont leave it in the caustic to long, you might find you dont have a cylinder head anymore.
  14. Its Mick Andrews, hes shipping them over there, well most of the bike for sale here seem to have been through Micks hands at some point according to the website.
  15. All this talk of pre 65 bikes being fiddled and not realy being what they should be has got me thinking, has anyone tried using a Vincent rear end (slightly modified) on a pre 65 bike? And would it be legal if it was done?

    Ty175 Tuning

    Change the condensor, mine did the same popping and banging a new condensor sorted it out.
  17. I wasnt comparing it as such, the point I was making was that the WTC has even less chance of someone winning a round than F1 does. F1 this season 4 different winners, WTC how many? You could also argue that if your not on a Montesa or Gas Gas then your not going to win anything in the WTC, thats the comparison i was making.
  18. If it wasnt for that 'boring motorsport' as you call it, your modern bike wouldnt be half as modern as it is. Be honest, the world Trials championship isnt boring or predictable is it??
  19. Well Ralf Schumacher did the same at Monaco, his punishment was they added 0.5sec to his fastest quailfying lap, he lost about 5 places on the grid.
  20. Lewis Hamilton is facing a possible grid demotion after breaching a sporting regulation in morning practice at Interlagos on Friday. The British championship leader, along with Jenson Button (Honda) and Takuma Sato (Super Aguri), will all be investigated by the stewards after the afternoon session for allegedly breaching article 25.3 relating to wet weather tyres. It is claimed that the trio used two sets of wet tyres on Friday morning, where the rules say only one set may be used. Article 25.3 reads: 'No driver may use more than one set of wet and one set of extreme weather tyres during P1 and P2'. Seems a bit odd the team didnt know the rules about this, or is it just Mclaren on the fiddle again. Normal situation like this, a 10 place drop on the grid would be given. The outcome is going to be interesting.
  21. Mate of mine had a similar problem recently, turns out it was a tubed version of the X11 he had been given.
  22. I keep saying I do rate him, he is very good. But he is at the sharp end of the grid in the best car, he should be putting in good performances. All i'm saying is dont forget there are other drivers out there putting in some amazing performances and getting very little recognition for it, im not saying Davidson would have done as well as Hamilton if he had been in a Mclaren, but he would have had enough good drives for people to be impressed by this new English guy, and be singing his praises, if they had been in each other cars most people would be saying Lewis who? We only ever see the British reaction to all this, I bet the German newspapers are now hailing Vettel as the next Schumacher. The guy is good, how good we'll have to wait 10yrs to see.
  23. Hes in the best car, in a sport where its almost impossible to win without having the best equipment, if he wasnt qualifying in the top 4 every race then there would be something seriously wrong. Look at Anthony Davidson, he has put in far better performances than Hamilton this year, out quailfying his much more experienced team mate on circuits hes never even seen, and putting that Super Aguri further up the grid than that car has any right to be, but hes not winning so no-one notices. Or Vettel, ok he crashed out of 3rd due to inexperience in Fuji but bringing that car home 4th in difficult conditions in China was probably the best drive this season. This season has been very good for lots of reasons, Hamilton is just one of them. Its also been a very bad season for lots of other reasons.
  24. When the president of the FIA says he wanted the whole tean, car and drivers kicked out for this season and next for what they did, then they have done something seriously wrong, the only reason they didnt get kicked out was down to a vote where comercial aspects won. Having a potentional coloured English world champion made far more sense than giving the championship to a boring Finn, from a comercial aspect. From a sporting aspect, F1 lost a lot of credability. Hamilton is good, long term he can be a great, its a pity that this season has been ruined by outside influences, cheating and money. If he wins the title people will always think it tainted, just like people say Schumachers first title was tainted, hes never going to get away from that. You cant just take away as teams constructors points for no reason, there had to be a good reason and if there was then any points a driver scored in the car must also have to be taken away or its just a joke. Ask yourself this and be honest, if all this had happened last year when Kimi and JPM were in the Mclarens and not fighting for the championship would they have lost just constructors points or lost both?
  25. If his car isnt banned then why isnt it allowed to score points? If you won the Scottish Pre 65 on an illegal bike would it still count? Yes Kubica was to blame and got punished, the point i was making was that Barrichello was also to blame but went unpunished, knock off who you want but if its Hamilton then you'll get punished so it seems.
