Doing my first oil change soon. I might have to try that one. Where do you buy ENEOS oil?
What I want to know is, what the phuck was he thinking? Hey I'm 2.6 seconds behind my teammate, I'm not making up any ground whatsoever, let me call into the team and tell them that my teammate is going too slow. I could understand, if he was consistently every lap making up .5 seconds and then dropping back because of the dirty air and also within the DRS zones, but he was not even in the DRS zone, so what exactly was his complaint? And then when asked in the press conference if he was in the same situation and his answer that it is not relevant, just shows he's lost it. He's broken mentally are my thoughts. He should think about going to another team, Lewis is just the faster driver and if he does in fact get the 27 million/year contract, Mercedes also believes their best hopes are with LH leaving NR as the RB of Mercedes.
That said, dude needs to toughen up, he's been beaten soundly every race/quali this year, he won't get those lead driver perks until he turns it around.

Got a bit bored of the gold wheels and was tired of the curb marks from the previous owner. I decided to go with a charcoal metallic paint and a satin finish. Also got new tires - Pirelli P7AS+ - rides nice.
Passenger side is still gold as I didn't have enough time to do both sides. I am sanding the wheels down to make sure they are mark free and look new with the new paint.

I think Nico didn't want to get any closer as it seems the 2015 cars are hugely impacted by the dirty air from the lead cars, even more than in recent years.

Dropbox is always an issue, you can attach them here or I would use photobucket
I think Lewis is really, really enjoying Nico coming across as a spoiled child (or at least more of one than usual)...and will use it to dominate even more in the coming weeks.

Got my tires mounted and balanced. Took them a while (two hours), but the dealer was the cheapest place to get it done. Very happy so far with the Ziex ZE912s. Not limitless grip, but it does take a lot to break them loose. I feel like the suspension is less effective than the grip of the tires.
With a little saving and hopefully no catastrophes that require a bunch of money, I will be getting the progress RSB soon-ish. I might order a couple other goodies, though. I thought I would do the RSB and a mild exhaust and call it a day, but now I'm starting to re-think things a bit. I'd also like the dollar to creep up a bit more before I order things from the US. As of now, a progress RSB is almost $300 CAD.

Yes the CAD exchange sucks so bad right now. Everything from the states is like 30% more expensive now, and then we have to pay "international" shipping and customs even though were so close to the border lol.

And if I had a lot of money, that TODA pulley set.
Ordered something I had wanted for awhile which I should be getting in the next few days. Also pulled the trigger on a personalized license plate
Totally agree and as of this morning so does Toto Wolfe, they are going to keep letting them be competitive which I agree with!
I have been using PB forever, I find it so easy to use and it allows me to retain my pics better over time
Nice, OEM fluid?

I really think NR can't handle the pressure from Lewis and repeatedly breaks down mentally as a result. Monza last year was a perfect result of how easily he cracks under pressure when he ended up going straight through Monzas first turn. Lewis obviously gets to him

Photos are fixed. I was in a rush and didn't even check to make sure they worked. Lesson learned. I have had a photobucket account since like 2006, tons of crap in there.
