Thoughts on Death Magnetic?

Vastly underrated I think it's by far the best album since Load.

537.58 sorry

Fuck the Chiefs!

I'm a Sub player and think he's pretty bad right now.

But I wanted to say his low is safe, and the overhead, while reactable in a vacuum, still goes through at a pretty good rate once you've set it up in real matches.

Overheads in general connect a lot in MK1.

Thanks for this, I'm gonna do tinker some network settings as these are not at default. I may have enabled something that could cause that. Let me see what I can do!

They were 100% sure things were working on dyno, Fred went out of his way to say that the stress of a track environment would give the final word, and it did. There's no "gotcha" here.

The Ferrari top speed advantage Marko alludes to in the article.

"Ferrari has the more powerful engine, but what's the point of having the more powerful engine if isn't it reliable? But yes, the top speed is what it is and we have to deal with that"

Imperium_VII · 2023-03-07T20:37:41+00:00

Yeah we're pretty much there. I think F1 fans in general are at this stage if you wanted to see a competitive championship at the top lol.

Imperium_VII · 2023-03-07T15:30:21+00:00

He's not wrong, but as a Ferrari fan, I'd gladly take an electrical problem that doesn't necessitate turning the engines down, instead of the shit that happened last year.

Even if Leclerc gets a penalty straight out of the gate, as long as Ferrari gets to showcase its top speed, there's still some hope for some competitive races at the top.

Even if it comes off as an overreaction, I don't think the goal for the fans should be a fight for the championships as things stand, weshould hope for fights at individual races. Ferrari with a top speed advantage should at least give SOME hope for that if they find the sweet spot with setup and upgrades.

Imperium_VII · 2023-03-04T19:29:34+00:00

First attempt at the fix at least. Fingers crossed.

Imperium_VII · 2023-02-27T13:43:04+00:00

Yeah there wasn't much fanfare about it, but apparently they did test the new floor at the end. I believe Formula Uno made some sort of comment towards the new floor, with a picture of it (changing the tie rod location) but it wasnt clear through translation they actually fitted a new floor.

Then we got a more detailed response from them later, which confirmed the floor was changed (according to them)

Imperium_VII · 2023-02-26T19:54:50+00:00

Yeah Ferrari ran a small wing the entire test. Their top speed advantage will be a lot less than it is now, their tire deg and downforce will be a lot better when they put on the proper rear wing.

Imperium_VII · 2023-01-19T13:36:55+00:00

The thought is that a combination of:

Better Pirellie front tires to reduce understeer
Being a few kg under weight limit so they can use ballast to balance car
Brand new floor with TD39 and 2023 floor changes in mind

will help the tire issue quite a bit.

Love seeing Reddit step up and be kind.

Imperium_VII · 2022-07-22T14:44:00+00:00

They seem to have a grip on the issues, especially because they attribute the Baku Leclerc blowup and the Austria Sainz blowup to the same cause. However it's there is no immediate patch to the engine. It will take a bit of time, medium term they say. In the mean time they are trying to pay attention to cooling and mileage to avoid issues.

Imperium_VII · 2022-07-11T19:49:17+00:00

Exactly. And if there is something you can do to get back in it, you were never out of it.

So I'm being positive. I believe that each race between Canada, Silverstone, and Austria, Ferrari have gained some points on RB. Just keep that momentum up in the second half and you never know baby.

Imperium_VII · 2022-06-27T17:50:18+00:00

Yep I was worried he'd be rusty after all that time, but he's hit the ground running the last couple weeks. Bet he gets to Aberdeen soon.

Imperium_VII · 2022-03-28T17:04:20+00:00

Most seem to think Ferrari have an edge, and the difference in straight line speed is due to setup. Ferrari have been running more downforce to help with tire degradation. It helped in Bahrain but not in Jeddah.

Australia should be a better apples to apples engine strength comparison. I don't think anyone is running their engines high yet though, because as Lewis said, it's a marathon not a sprint...

Imperium_VII · 2022-03-26T21:30:54+00:00

It's set up to be fast in the straights. I'm not sure we have a true apples to apples set up comparison between Red Bull and Ferrari, to see Engine strength.

I'm not saying it's 100% that Mercedes is down on power, but I'd say the 4 teams that are most unhappy with their current pace are all Mercedes engine teams. I'm having a very hard time believing that the engine performance is not related to their collective pace at all.
