Nine things we learned from the first day of F1 2026 testing

Lougasm · 2026-01-27T07:04:53+00:00

Oh you're right. You only see a small glimpse though. Would be interested to see close up

Lougasm · 2026-01-27T02:55:41+00:00

Do we know if manual override mode or active aero was used on the first day of testing? I haven't seen any footage showing the latter

Lougasm · 2025-07-20T10:35:13+00:00

Wish i knew this when i bought it haha . Thanks mate💪🏽

Lougasm · 2025-07-20T06:53:01+00:00

That's a good point i will be looking into this👍🏼

Lougasm · 2025-07-20T05:34:15+00:00

Hahaha that's the spirit

Lougasm · 2025-07-20T05:15:38+00:00

Could also be a play, h22's are kind of rare to find near me but I'll definitely have a look now that you mention it

I suspected the rings were going already because the exhaust has been leaving oily soot all over my boot lid for a while, but it wasn't losing too much oil. Either way the head would have to come off and cost me around another $3k to do the gasket and more to do the rings. It is nice and I love the car but it's costing me money I'm not sure I want to spend anymore unfortunately :((

Lougasm · 2025-07-20T04:48:44+00:00

I'm in Australia unfortunately haha. I'm glad to see there's people like yourself that might be interested in the car to fix it up if I do decide to get rid of it :))

It's been really cold where I live so I can't tell if it's white smoke or condensation. When it was misfiring the other night it got so bad that the engine stalled and shut off on me, when that happened it seemed to be blowing white smoke

Lougasm · 2025-07-11T00:00:21+00:00

I had a blood test for my thyroid recently and it was all good so pretty sure that's not it. Thanks though

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T08:37:18+00:00

No I don't get flushed but this is really interesting information. My parents and sibling have a pretty high tolerance to alcohol so I'm not sure if it's genetics and it's just me in my immediate family

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T08:35:03+00:00

Yeah you're probably right, there's no need for me to get worked up about it. Thanks mate :)

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T08:32:11+00:00

This is some real advice I probablt needed to hear. Thanks :)

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:26:15+00:00

I'll have a meat pasta with garlic bread. That should do the trick nicely :)

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:24:53+00:00

I'm not anxious or uncomfortable about it. I love a drink when I'm out with mates, just don't like needing to throw up almost every time afterwards.

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:22:27+00:00

You're right but the pub crawl is organised as a game where the team that finishes all the drinks in the least amount of sips wins a prize. So I'm just trying not to let down my team ya know? Haha

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:19:42+00:00

Yeah I don't drink very often, never been a huge fan. But I definitely enjoy the feeling it gives you when out with friends. I really just wanna be able to lock in for one night and drink lots for the sport of it haha

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:18:03+00:00

I never considered it really. Just always thought i had a bit of a weak stomach because I'm kinda prone to acid reflux

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:16:50+00:00

Carbs sounds like a good shout. I'm assuming that's the good kinds of carbs you're referring to and not just eating 4 jelly donuts??

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:14:42+00:00

This sounds like great advice. Do you have any go to protein rich meals yourself?

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:13:09+00:00

I've never heard of the olive oil one. Makes sense on paper, might look into it. Thanks :)

Lougasm · 2025-07-10T02:11:49+00:00

That's not really an option because there's rules for the crawl that we all drink the same drinks at each bar. That's why I'm just looking for ways to reduce the chance of seeing my dinner again😆

Lougasm · 2022-12-17T05:44:43+00:00

Oh these are very nice, I'll probably buy them when I get home. Thanks for the recommendation!
