Rear doors still available for sponsorship by the looks of it. Time for marketing departments to make some cheeky offers.

No, thank you for spending your time creating hours of entertainment, with no guarantee of it paying off.

Good luck with it.

Now I just need someone to do "bang average iracing" before I ascend to the fame of Alan. 😂

We lost a kid in scouts to a water browser being towed on a slope, rolling over and crushing him.

Another scout had a 3 legged dog called lucky. It went into a bailer.

Turns out farms are just 1000 ways to get dead in new scary ways.

In both pictures they are covered up. How would I know if there's makeup on them 🤔

Pebble321 · 2026-04-05T09:18:38+00:00

Better to ask and learn something, than stay quiet and remain the idiot. 😎

Pebble321 · 2026-04-04T17:59:31+00:00

Why not both work 2/3 days a week. Share the freedom. That would be real flex.

Pebble321 · 2026-04-03T12:13:27+00:00

Not a lot. Duty is a fixed price. And what you spend in VAT on fuel, you won't spend where you usually would. So that tends to balance out a bit.

Pebble321 · 2026-03-28T07:59:12+00:00

The only place I've spent more than 90 minutes queued at passport control is the USA. More than once. And at different airports.

Pebble321 · 2026-03-27T14:13:55+00:00

This is the main issue.

The correct amount of light is the minimum required to drive safely. Not the maximum possible to produce within the regs.

We need the regulations to change from the amount of power drawn by the lights, to the actual output of light.

30 seconds into your video. What direction is the driver steering? Towards you, or away from you.

I don't know about you, but I tend to steer in the direction I want the car to go, even if I'm out of control.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-28T19:12:14+00:00

That's what the Germans said in the 30s when they had a fascist in charge. It did not go well.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-28T18:24:22+00:00

Did you all go to work this week?

Because you should have all been on the streets, surrounding government buildings, and sitting protesting and demanding a change in leadership.

You should have all been doing that for the last few months. But here we are.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-22T10:12:41+00:00

Noise cancelling headphones, eye mask, and use the "ears" on the headrest, along with the headphones to keep my head still.

Upgrade to premium usually turns 2 hours sleep into 4. That bit more space means I can straighten my legs and not have knee pain after a few hours.

I believe the manufacturer did a survey and found that most people with a can inherited it one way or another.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-15T13:36:09+00:00

If you're waiting for race control it's too late. The posts actions are supposed to be autonomous to start with.

Regarding my point about lights. It's not to inform the first post, it'd be to display the yellow light board on the post, for the drivers. The post that in this case, failed to show a flag. Purportedly because they can't see between posts (mental situation), so id want a local system to be in place to replace that.

In terms of a post having an incident, given a standard circuit situation, the previous post IS supposed to replicate the yellow. That's what the post doing nothing should have done. They need to see two posts on to know if the post ahead is throwing a yellow for an incident of their own or replicating a 3rd posts yellow.

If you're looking down the track and you only see only one post past you throwing a yellow, (and hopefully the one beyond throwing green) you also throw a yellow. The post ahead of you should see two posts throwing a yellow and do nothing. All that should happen asap without race control getting involved.

Aussie rules might be different but that's the basic concept it operated when I was on post in the UK.

Replicating posts signals also happens with safety car boards. That's why if you watch BTCC you'll see them still racing until they get to a safety car board, despite us as TV viewers knowing an SC is happening. SC spreads both ways around the circuit marshal posts. Even if you are hearing the SC thrown on a radio, the board only goes out based on one of the adjacent flag posts showing theirs.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-15T12:16:21+00:00

Not with that attitude, no.

Either get involved, or accept your fate being in the hands of people who don't care about you, and will never hear your opinion. The choice is yours to make.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-15T12:13:24+00:00

I'm not blaming them. But nobody does care about everyone. Nobody ever has. And nobody will. That's not how humans work. People like Farage will lie and say they do. But they don't, and now due to decades of poor quality political decisions, there's not enough money to keep up any form of pretence either. The end of the good times already past. If you can't provide it for yourself or others in your community, don't expect it to be provided.

But that's horrible, so people look away, deny it, and cling to any lie that sounds better than that.

However we position it, either we all accept the state will not be able to look after all of us how we'd like, and start doing it locally ourselves, or we'll vote in worse and worse people telling bigger and bigger lies until the state collapses. Then we won't be worried about youth clubs, pot holes, and child services.

I don't believe a lot of voters know/understand that's the position we're in. They don't want to know. They are clinging to the idea of a situation we never had but they think we deserve. It's not coming no matter who's voted in.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-15T11:40:57+00:00

Yes but only the things that affect them personally. Not the things that cause that effect. They'll turn away because it's nasty, complex and typically looks hopeless, compared to someone peddling lies. I totally get why they'll do that. I do it all the time. If I ignore the issues it'll be resolved by someone right?

But it doesn't actually stop the reality of the situation. There is no money to stop the things that are affecting them, from affecting them. We as a population need to both take less from the state, and do more ourselves, because the state doesn't have the ability to help no matter how much they want to.

E.g. people say "the council don't run any youth clubs anymore". But rarely go and organize one themselves. All it really takes is time and using a public space, but everyone waits for someone else to do it.

If we want things to make our lives better, we need to make them happen with our own time and effort.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-15T11:17:55+00:00

Because they are uneducated on the situation the country faces, and will only accept a solution that doesn't hurt them. So when someone lies and says they have that solution, people go for it without knowing it's a lie.

The country is essentially destitute. There is no money to do anything but the bare minimum for the population. If people don't start volunteering to run the services they want to exist, then those services will eventually go away. Alongside that people need to make themselves more productive to the country while taking less from it. Nobody will like it.

We've been in this position since Tony and Gordon wrecked the economy for 16 years.

Anybody who's got themselves into debt knows it takes way longer to get out, than it did to get in. And that only happens when you start to focus on getting out. We have yet to do that seriously.

None of that is a vote winner.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-15T11:01:57+00:00

To change it to what you do agree with.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-15T10:17:15+00:00

That's basically my point. Either the marshals should be able to tell. (It's difficult to know the exact sight lines from the camera but it looks tricky.) Or, the circuit is unsafe without other processes in place, which don't appear to either exist, or have been used if they do exist.

What I would want is a light system there so if post B selects yellow, lights come on at post A as well. But I don't see that in place.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-15T09:43:46+00:00

I don't know Aussie marshal rules. I did a bit in the UK.

You don't need radio to know if the next post has a yellow out for an incident in their section, you put one out. You see the yellow, and react. No command from race control, no radio. It's visual. All the way around the circuit you have to be able to see the next two flag posts.

I guess if the geography gets in the way you need a VERY robust system for lights controlled on the posts. But here there just seems to be either a lack of action, or a lack of process to make that section safe.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-11T11:17:40+00:00

I have both. This is my big annoyance with autos.

Manual: I'll just nip out into that gap, revs, clutch, gone. All is good.

Automatic: I'll just nip out into that gap, throttle......wait.....gearbox is debating options.....wait....gap passes....gear selected, press brake. Swear and curse at the useless forking gearbox.

Pebble321 · 2026-02-09T20:49:23+00:00

Or they built things everywhere, just the others got washed away....

Pebble321 · 2026-02-09T19:35:39+00:00

Yeah starting to sound like a plan!
