Nice pics Dan!!

How does Justin always get is head in the pics??? Dodgy brother!!

You guys should of done a group shot !!

Anyway, nice work!

Great photos fella's!!! Jealous.....................wish I could of made it...................looks like y'all had a great meet!!!

Dan, did I miss the post where you spoke about dropping your ride.................or was this a surprise for the meet???

Well......................they did............................but team orders are just not bloody on!!!!!! The stewards better do something or I will not be happy............... Massa handled the press conference well considering! And shows Fernandos arrogance when he can just pretend that he deserved the win............total BS!!! I love how the word "magnanimous" was given to Massa. Google it if you don't know what it means.......bloody fitting I tell ya!

First and foremost, I love, and have always loved the Work Varianza's..........Awesome wheel on the IS! Gotta agree with Atlantis though, off-set is way wrong!!!!. (Its an IS250, not a SLR torana with flared out guards)....True baller is lip to guard, not half a wheel out! Man, you are going to need a crazy amount of camber to fit under.......Not on in my opinion but props for trying!!!

Yeah, was a great race..................I was so glad that RBR's number 2 driver stuck it to both Vettel and Horner!!! Man he pulled some quick laps and consistantly as well!As you said, bot Lewis and he drove well the entire race!!! As for Lewis taking out Vettel................Please..............Vettel himself said that he felt nothing and he didn't think that Lewis made contact. Where do you get your info from man??!!

As for Alonso, well he too showed that he can drive consistantly..............consistantly with errors that is! First he bogs down at the start, and then with poetic justice receives a drive through penalty..........love it!

And last but not least, my favourite arrogant driver, Vettel. Well you need to learn some race craft grass hopper!! Yes you have a bloody quick car that enabled you to take some of the back markers, but Sutil........what happened there?? You got a long way to go.........

There's my spin, bring on the next round!!!!

small one is the way to go i think

+1

I was wondering when you were going to give us your view on this weekend.

Prediction, LH will take OUT both Alonso and Webber at the start, Vettel will push too hard and take himself out!!

Fixed the missing word

Ha!! I hope you not right................but I must admit secretly I am a bit concerned!!!

Practice 1 and it Vettel & Hamilton....I think the whole weekend could be these two.

Come on Jenson

Who's your pick for this weekend???

Well, unfortunately my picks have changed since P2 and P3 and especially now after Qualy!!! Not happy................At least LH made p4 on the grid!!

Webber has the dirty side but lets see if Alonso and he get tangled up!!! I expect a tustle between LH and FA at the start!!!

Prediction, LH will take both Alonso and Webber at the start, Vettel will push too hard and take himself out!! Hopefullly Lewis keeps it clean and no incidents! Jenson, hmmm, you can never count him out because he always seems to make the right decision.!!! So LH 1st, 2nd, hopefully Webber! Alonso will be a force to be reckoned with though!!!

Oh yeah, count on Jenses dad to wear the pink.......what can I say, its just his thing!!!! If my son was world champ and made 43million pounds a year..............I would wear pink too!!

Just noticed a pair of headlights on ebay forsale in Sydney for $400 buy it now!! Figured they might be ideal for those wanting to do the Angel eye or blacking out mods!!! (Especially if you like me and don't want to stuff up your originals). Heatguns , ovens and headlights generally don't mix!!!! Unless you got a 100% success rate on mods like Justin!! (Cevu as I know there are a few justins here)!!!

Chris, didn't realise you were a sparky mate!!!! Can you hook me up with about 30m of 3phase cable???

Mate, thankyou!!! I just had a good ol' belly laugh!!! Hats off for the rebuttal!!! I guess we gonna beg to differ for the rest of the season........... Bring it on!!!

Yeah, I do agree...............Its a battle of words @ the moment and Alonso did himself no favours by having a go at the FIA!!!

Oh well, Silverstone next race...................can't wait. I hope (and I guess you don't) that Mclarens blown diffuser actually works unlike the all mighty Ferrari attempt!!! Ha!!

Hmmm............. Alonso needs to stop with his dummy spits and remember that he's driving an F1 car, not a pram!!!! That was his down fall. He was stewing as soon as he found out that LH didn't lose position after the drive through! Lewis didn't hold him up.................he just hesitated when he come to the line. If the pace car was a fraction later, FA would of been through too! Yeah, he could of slowed down behind the pace car, but do you honestly think Alonso would of.... Please!! The cry baby needs to drop this superiority complex!!!! He is good............but there are drivers that are just as good!! (Obviously not in his mind though)!!!!

Hmmm, deductions from Valencia.................

Webber just still unfortunately makes the worst race starts

Vettel is a loser

Webber is lucky to walk away unhurt

Vettel is a loser

Alonso needs to stop complaining

Vettel is a loser

If Lewis didn't get the drive through penalty, Vettel wouldn't of won and yes, Vettel is still a loser

Webber wants to sign up for the Redbull air race! (Sorry, poor humour guys)!! HAhA!

Great F1 season this year....................absolutely loving it!!!

Oh yeah, great drive by Kobayashi!!! Especially when he gave it to Alonso and Buemi!!

Haha!! Thanks mate!! No, look, P3 is pretty good considering the way that the practice sessions were looking!! Bloody Vettel! Its all good, his gear box will fall out before lap 10!!!Ha! Wishfull thinking! I hope Webber has a good race..........!

Concerns, apparently even the super softs aren't graining up here. I would dearly love a repeat of Canada where the Pits come into play!!

I know that this isn't really an overtaking track, but I still reckon LH will get up!!! And trust me, I will be doing my usual midnight posts when he does!!! Then again if Vettel gets up, rest assured I won't be silent!!!

Wheres your money???

nice to know

do any of you guys know how to fix the sunroof rattle noise??

i get it only over uneven roads, but its not all the time either, just some roads i get it, some i dont

but its really annoying, lol

i heard theres a way to fix it but cant find the topic again, any help is much appreciated!

Try the search feature k2sty1. You will be suprised how easy past topics are to find.

Here is the sunroof topic as requested.

http://au.lexusowner...h=1entry17124

hhmmmm...... well i live in a high crime area atm! parents place! will be moving soon so hopefully that cushions the blow a little but i'm up for 3444 a year insured at $56K. gotta make sure the mods and stereo system are covered! :-)

south west sydney!

Hey Justin..................mate, that is crazy!!!! Have you dropped an intercooled twin turbo 20b rotor into the IS and not told us??? That sort of premium I would hope so!!!Again mate, I would use the extra premium you pay and put it towards rent in a better area..............Crazy brother!!!

I will be changing insurance companies after this stint as well. Im currently with AAMI only because all my cars, house and home contents etc,etc etc were at one stage all through them and I have never claimed. Now only the Lex and my other car are through em. Are they the cheapest out there...............hell no. I pay $980 with an increased excess. ($1000odd). Im over 30 (not by much fellas so take it easy),(still young) and live in the North West.

I claimed my first ever windscreen on the Lex a few months back and that was an initial hassle because I didn't realise that I had to use their prefered windscreen supplier. (Although they did say that it was going to be an OEM glass). In the end they did agree to let me use my own guy if I payed the difference which they later matched. $920 for oem fitted!

I guess the main reason I want to change is hearing these great stories where insurance claims have gone seemlessly. I think you mentioned something a while ago Justin where yours was brilliant and no questions asked come claim time!!!

Mclaren 1 & 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bloody awesome!!!!! & what an awesome race!!!!!

I just loved it when Button put the pressure, LH just lit up the purples!!!!

And all poor Vettel wanted in the end was the fastest lap and he was even denied that........boohoo!!! Ha!

And Schumie............What tha???

Well fellas, what are your predictions taking into account P1 and P2 performances??? Hmm??

Well boys, 3 and a bit days and counting until Canada........................can't wait!!!

In the mean time, if you haven't watched the race edit from Turkey, have a look!!!!

Pretty cool!!

Race edit from Turkey

500mm wide x 15mm high.

That is surely impossible..........500mm long x 15mm tall??? 300mm would be the length app for 20odd characters.

I don't want a sticker that is 1/2 a metre long across my window. Doesn't sound right Atlantis especially if it is only 15mm tall!!

Well, its no secret that I dis-like Vettel, but check out the footage especially from Sebastians cam. Hmmmm. What do you think about the space on the right and lack of wheel movement on Sebastians car.....

I don't remember it looking this way last night!

Regardless, constuctors points come first...................................shouldn't of happened!

Yeah Baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mclaren 1 & 2!!!!!!!

What a race .........................egde of my seat stuff!!! Vettel, what can i say................"BLEEP"................Atleast Webber salvaged 3rd!!! Again, the ultimate race for Mclaren fans!!!! (Jom, how good was that!!!)

Alonso is making too many mistakes of late!!! Thats why I don't like the new points system..

Anything can happen in the race...................I just hope Vettel doesn't take Lewis out in the first corner!!! If he doesn't, it will be an awesome race between Webber and Lewis as I believe that Mclarens race pace will be just as quick as the RB's!!!!! 4hrs to go................Can't wait!!!

What a crack! I was wondering where you were going with that one!!

I like how Merc have stepped down from the appeal! Bloody politics, you can't escape it!! Bloody rough hey! For the FIA to come out now and say "yes, it was open to interpretation" , pretty sad!!

Yeah, back on track, Alonso and Lewis. Regardless, curious to see what updates come this weekend!!

Search this forum!!! You will find a post on this!

Obviously I don't know exactly what your rattle sounds like but my sub exhibited the same symptoms. Can you notice it at low levels??

My sub ended up being faulty!!!!

Jeso, might be a grill like some have experienced, may be a defective driver ...................If you not sure, take it into Lexus service if you are still covered under warranty.

Well fellas, not long to go now!!!!

Can't wait!

Will RedBull do it again? Will Mclaren have something? Ferrari?????Hmmm.

Turkey....................Fast sweeping corners, decent straight.....................Mclaren will be back..............Hamilton will get his first win here!!!

It was interesting reading an article that spoke of who RedBull considered as their greatest threat this year...............anyone guess?? Two drivers..........
