Yeah But Name a Ford team owned my someone like Walkinshoddy.

madman16 · 6 Mar 2009, 07:25 (Ref:2410092)

Who cares who owns them. The point is that Winterbottom has said an awful lot for someone who has achieved so little in his career so far

Pro Racer · 6 Mar 2009, 08:48 (Ref:2410140)

there are alot of people who arn't fond of Tom (myself included) but in my opinion when the green flag drops the bull**** stops and i couldn't give a flying stuff who owns what.

Totally agree. I'll admit there are team owners i like more than others but i'm there to see which driver wins the race not which owner does

Im just happy a driver has the balls to speak up ,thats what the sport needs someone who says these controversial things even if they are wrong.

Hopefully they will put something good together and that the perkins/KR cars still have that exhaust note that they had late last year. They sound awesome

I'd have my money on Rick before Todd.

Either way, both will perform well!

For sure....
Is there a recorded case of Todd overtaking Rick ?
Me thinks Todd yields to little bro in traffic.

Alrighty peeps, this is the drum, listen up!

Seems as though a few things are going to play a deciding factor, all mainly do to with the introduction of E85.

First of all is the consumption side of things, as the cars go through about 30% more fuel, management and strategy is going to be a big deal.

How do you stretch fuel? Lean it out! The more you lean it out, the closer you come to a big bang... he who dares wins!

Has anyone been practicing their race starts?

Has anyone been practicing safety cars and how this affects the engine?

Has anyone been practicing pit lane procedures with speed limiters on? Don't assume they will be easy to launch out of the box!

Has anyone been running their cars dry so they know exactly how closely everything is calibrated?

What about a 40 degree day in Adelaide, how will that mess with all of the above?

And don't assume that dyno time will save you... so many questions, can't wait for some answers!

just shows what a load of crap the whole "green" ethanol is. the biggest green con job ever.

I think the point of the exercise is that they are saving the universe by not using as much fossil fuel. According to my shonky maths, you would be looking at an 80% reduction in the amount of fossil fuels...

peckstar · 17 Mar 2009, 11:01 (Ref:2417275)

lol. fossil fuels are just decayed plant life.

How much water did you need to create it and did you use any energy (which comes from?) oh yeah how many trees did you have to clear to create the land necessary to plant the crops to make the enviromentally friendly fuel
