Ferrari director ‘disappointed’ with performance level

Ferrari Technical director Pat Fry has said that he doesn’t expect the team to start the 2012 season well. Who remembers the 1988 Austalian Grand Prix? Many have suggested that Ferrari need to hit the ground running to improve on last year, but Fry is in a rather pessimistic mood. Speaking at the end of a tough pre-season, [...]

Life in the pit lane


The Mercedes pit crew prepare for Michael Schumacher in Singapore © Getty Images
Away from the world of multi-million-pound car development laboratories and drivers whose small change takes care of the Monte Carlo harbour fees, another drama will play out in Singapore this week. The Independent's David Tremayne joins F1's unsung heroes.
These are not select millionaires but up to 16 ordinary, yet gifted, guys; team mechanics who have worked their way up the system and often migrate from team to team, are paid real-world wages of between £30,000 and £50,000 a year, are drilled to perfection – and whose split-second synchronisation brings their teams huge rewards.

1971 Plymouth Duster 340+6

This kit I bought from Mr. Prestigious, aka streetrod aka Barry Faddon over a month ago. 

I wasn't sure how I was going to build it, but I wanted it different from the '70 Duster 340 conversion I built almost 3 years ago.   After some thought, I decided to build it as a hotted up version with different paint, graphics, induction, and wheels and tires.  My paint will be Tamiya TS-31 Bright Orange with 1970 'Cuda 340 Hockey Stick stripes from Keith Marks.

I am undecided on which wheels to use.  The wheels at the top of the picture are simular to Cragar Dragstars or the American Racing Torque Thrusts at the bottom.  I am leaning towards the Dragstars though.  We shall see...

More to come...
