  1. Just go with what the handbook says, as a start.
  2. I promise you it did. Tyres are tyres, they still need to be set at the correct pressure for the application
  3. What does it say in the handbook? 35psi isn't going to be far off.
  4. Exactly. The tyres have a tiny contact patch with the ground atm, it's bloody dangerous. Get them dropped asap.
  5. Jesus christ please reduce them from 50psi, you'll wear them out in weeks! And then take the run flats off and throw them in the bin, I don't know what 370Z pressures should be off hand, but around 35psi would be MUCH better.
  6. Being an MP is a job. Yes it’s serving the public, but it’s no different in that regard from being a nurse or a police officer. Taken in that context, why wouldn’t you want to reward people for serving the community? I disagree with your statement about most MPs being from the legal profession. I’d like to see that backed up with a source if possible. I actually don't disagree with you though about wanting MPs who do actually just want to help people. That should absolutely be the goal of any MP, and for some I’ve no doubt it is, but going back to my first point it’s now just a job and to expect anything more from our MPs these days just isn’t realistic. I wish it was!
  7. But there’s many CEOs that go from company to company, and leaving them all better off. They just don’t make the headlines as much as the ones that fail catastrophically. There might be many people, not just CEOs but those who earn twice what an MP earns without breaking sweat, who could do a great job and would quite like a go, but can afford to drop the money. £80k a year is peanuts for what we expect MPs to do, and the ramifications of their decisions.
  8. Unlike Ferrari AHAHAHAHAHA SEE WHAT I DID THERE
  9. I really need to go out there someday soon.
  10. I knew you’d bite on that one mate!
  11. I’d rather get people in who had a proven track record of success than people who get in based upon what colour tie they wear.
  12. I’d love to see Max and Lewis in the same car.
  13. This is why we should pay MPs more, at least double if not triple. We might actually attract some people with half a brain from the private sector that way, people who didn’t go through the Eton way.
  14. That's interesting Doc, and I tend to follow your opinion when it comes to politicians sticking with something they believe in even if it may be unpopular or career damaging. With that in mind how do you view Rees Mogg himself, in particular to do with his antiquated views on family life? Admiration for sticking with what he believes, or disgust that he cannot get with the modern times? Just to stick myself completely on the fence, I feel both ways about him
  15. I've said it before, but I still believe that the majority of people vote for whoever their parents vote for, which is usually based on historic events that have zero to do with anything now. The amount of time I hear miner's strike or winter of discontent mentioned when discussing modern politics is disturbing. No-one even bothers to check anything any more, they tend to sit comfortably in the Tory/Labour/Anyone Else Will Do And It'll Be A Protest Vote camps.
  16. If it’s rosso with crema, I’ll be disappointed
  17. Apart from Tesla cars, ofc. They’re infallible. /gangzoom
  18. Please tell me you don't think they're good. They're horrendous.

    Tyre Lettering

    Nah. They can look good, but needs to be on the right car and tbh unless you like having the US spelling of tyre on the side of your car only the Toyo one looks vaguely decent. But then you need to be running Toyos They're a pain to fit, and they're more of a pain to remove, and they're an absolute bitch to keep clean. I wouldn't do it again.
  20. Nope, in 2012 (the final season before Lewis joined the team) they won 1 race, with 3 podiums and a single pole. That was the team he was moving to, so that's the base level for the judgement call he made.
  21. I mean, don't get me wrong I'd like to see some of the younger drivers given a go in the big cars to open up the competition a bit more, but it's not like it doesn't happen with LeClerc and Verstappen recent successes. Kubica and Kimi shouldn't be anywhere near an F1 car right now.
  22. You mean when he took the gamble in moving to a distinctly average Mercedes team to replace Schumacher, a team that had won just one race all season? Sure it paid off in a big way, but that was not a good team at the time.
  23. I still follow it, although not watch it live as I don't have Sky. Tbh it's not that interesting to me unless Lewis is winning/doing well, which probably says as much about me as it does the current state of the sport. It's funny watching Ferrari implode though!
