how great was that race - faaark

Nasser has a great lead from Alonso and Schumacher, but if Schumacher had passed Alonso before Nasser had got over the line, the Ferrari team orders would have forced Nasser to stop so that Schumacher would have the points..... and he would have taken them too, the wally

but no matter what, Nasser had the winning position

1/ he doesn't have to stop for Schumacher.... he wins the race
2/ he has to stop for Schu. and takes second, Schu. looks like an arsehole
3/ he stops for Schu. who takes the flag, then Alonso stops and lets Nasser take 2nd... Nasser and Alonso get the nobel sportsmanship prize and are loved by the world - chaching!!

yee hah!!





ummmmmmmm, took the VH44 booster off the brick today to recondition it, how come there are 2 different sizes for the large diaphragms, and which is the right size for a MK2 Cooper S

Umm, I don't know the answer to your booster problem. :?
I think that VH44J is the proper number for the mini. How much bigger is the big one? It is not from a VH40 is it?

nah, it's still a VH44, but there are 2 types of rear casing, one with a large spring plate/diaphragm, and one with a small one - neither of mine are the 'proper' S one with the thread in the centre

nyaaaawwwwwwwwwwww
freeeeawwwwwwwwwwwwwww
nyaaaw nyaaaawww nyaaaawww

Bit of a hijack - are the VH40's and chop. I have one here gathering dust and wondering if I put a kit through it, would they be sufficient to my needs? I cant justify the silly money being charged locally for a '44($750!!!) and Fleabay arent much better.

Shuey is a bit of a prima donna when it comes to racing and its about time they move him on. I reckon Webber could be just as good in the Ferrari :lol:

Hooroo

Schuey is no doubt a good driver, but an arrogant arsehole - he was practically spraying his champagne in Massa's ear on the podium, it looked like he wanted to beat him over the head with the bottle

the VH40 will put you through the windscreen - way too much braking power I'm told, more suited to an EH sized car. The last couple of 44's on ebay weren't too bad, but $750 is insane!

I'd sell my spare one for the right price, after I've sorted out the backing etc. ;)

Can you let us know if you do - would be interesed if the price is right.

Might still do the '40 for shits and giggles - cant have too much stopping power - besides I have always wanted to go a wheelie in a mini!! I have a soft foot anyhow(VERY progressive!!)

Hooroo
