META4 · 23 Sep 2008, 14:02 (Ref:2296110)

you believe that Michael HO will battle with Grunwell, Bamber or Ebrahim?

I guess he will more battle with Williamson and Hafiz Koh... Time will tell...

Not anymore news from Jeffrey Lee? Well i guess hopefully not...

N.A-D.R · 23 Sep 2008, 14:09 (Ref:2296113)

U said Grunwell has his head stuck in the US? Is he going to go to america soon or something?

Lam Pak · 23 Sep 2008, 14:12 (Ref:2296116)

michael ho is very quick and got balls. he has the experience these kids dont have. he can broken down them in a good day. jeffrey lee can be back. hope fully he gonna race in shanghai. he has a car but his life rhythm of management dont give him the rubber time.

grunwel is saying everybody he got a ticket to america. he is jammed. cause why bamber gonna win easy going.

you all get the best

Lam Pak · 22 Oct 2008, 11:44 (Ref:2318234)

michael ho is possible racing in japan for champ motorsport. he test frenault in zhuhai. he was very fast.

tara-dtm miss one driver.

Sun 1 · 23 Oct 2008, 06:18 (Ref:2318769)

Very fast ? what lap time did he do?

sequentialbox · 24 Oct 2008, 13:50 (Ref:2319961)

Okayama is a track were driving skill will make a difference and expect a big gap between front and rear.

My bet is Earl, CHarlez followed by James and Mark Williamson.

Michael Ho won't be any faster than Kevin Chen, no matter how much you idealized him Lam Pack

.

I think Armaan ran out of money and the team had no choice than stop running him.

Valker · 24 Oct 2008, 14:30 (Ref:2320007)

Only seven cars in free practice. No Ho.

Code:

1. Earl BAMBER   	NZL   	Pizza Company Team   	1:33.066

Lam Pak · 25 Oct 2008, 14:41 (Ref:2320585)

today: bamber, grunwell, iso charlez, afis.

gp2 driver kevin chen was kick out by afis. he had too much bad luck with driver of singapure.

arman is very rich and he left the team was cause he didnt feel happy in a team of afis koh?

That is not what the lap time says

Kevin Chen 1'32"367
Hafiz KOH 1'31"541

And last but not Least ....

Michael Ho 1'32"114 for the Macau National Star... Lam Pak , Michael Ho must have been very quick last week in Zhuhai....

all of that to compare to the 1'29"311 of Earl Bamber

Monkey Head · 26 Oct 2008, 01:36 (Ref:2320858)

For anyone who dobut on contact you may check lap chart in mstworld

**gomick** · 27 Oct 2008, 06:26 (Ref:2321517)

2 good wins for Earl - guess he can only lose the championship now... hopefully atleast 10 cars turn up in china

- is the championship going to continue in 2009?

Asa · 27 Oct 2008, 08:49 (Ref:2321570)

I like Michael Ho and I always hope that he performs well. But he has never performed.

It is good that Earl Bamber is winning. I saw him race in GP2 Asia in Shanghai and he was very good. Maybe just need a little more endurance.

schitarella · 28 Oct 2008, 04:32 (Ref:2322293)

Hi I go to this event. Not many cars again and the ones racing still have problems, no armaan which is a big shame also. It's sad as the serie now only has 3 real competitive drivers- bamber (proven very good with now much international successes), charlez (very fast and good but meritus has much better cars/ team it seems as his car break down every race meeting almost while he is running up front) and grunwell (who has impressed a lot by sometimes being right up there with bamber in pace and has had very good consistent season until japan race 2). Ho was off the pace but to be fair was never expected to challenge with the young drivers, but in the race his car catch on fire. Fastest was Bamber followed by quite close by Charlez all weekend (although in race pace bamber was unmatched). The meritus cars use two new sets of tire where as the taradtm car only use one set all event. Charlez car fuel tank split in race 2 as after the event he was being hosed down by medical workers as he done the whole race sitting in a big pool of petrol with some burns. Haifz get lucky podium as Grunwell spin off and his pace is seconds behind the rest of the drivers but nice result as he looked very happy after the event. this serie really needs more cars as it fills a nice gap in asia but for some reason never took off this year, also not enough races as most drivers hadn't driven since months ago in sentul rounds so too big of gap with no seat time. hope 2009 they can find some cars and we get more than 3-4 good drivers. anyone hear why no armaan at this event?

Asa · 28 Oct 2008, 08:50 (Ref:2322357)

Maybe MAL should just dump the Renault cars and run an F3 series instead.

sequentialbox · 28 Oct 2008, 11:31 (Ref:2322475)

Quite a nice event, very nice atmosphere.

AS sais three drivers are really faster than the rest.
Earl dominating, but nothing surprising seing his performance in A1 and GP2 asia.
Charlez had a good week end and James also until he blew it twice in the second race.

Earl will miss shanghai for A1 clash so james should be champion,unless he blew it again.

Charlez had a good week end,being conservatives after all the crash he had this year ( i don't remind him having technical problem though).

Meritus and TARADTM seems to be the only proper teams, with the rest happy enough with just getting the cars on track.

Lam Pak · 28 Oct 2008, 12:19 (Ref:2322501)

i think champ is right next to meritus and taradtm but champ is not rich as they are and hav less experience in v6 cars and meritus hav very good drivers.this week end champ hav setup problems. they change enginer and michael and kevin are learn. very good return for michael. he didnt race this year and he was inpace.
with speculation, what was it for?james cannot exchenage a1gp for v6 or not going be champion again. if grunwell is champion is very unfair.
asa is right. mal and afos cannot keep racing wtih 9 or 8 cars they need give me something to believe. they need shakes the boards and rattles all the doors

Monkey Head · 28 Oct 2008, 13:05 (Ref:2322535)

Mertius and Champ have start race in V6 since the series began and DTM join the pack the year later.Beside that former CT motorsport's engineers Marc Pivec was cheif engineer of Champ during last weekend.that's all

Is that confirmed? Van der Drift was originally A1GP NZL's #1 choice but with Bamber's recent excellent form then perhaps he has been 'promoted'.

Lam Pak · 1 Nov 2008, 10:56 (Ref:2325310)

bamber is very quick and wants to be champion this year in v6. he cant get lost in a1gp. sometimes i think the driver dont think too much. van drift is ok for nz

N.A-D.R · 2 Nov 2008, 00:31 (Ref:2325643)

Well formula V6 Asia is smaller then A1GP. Plus A1GP you represent your country, so i think it can be more important.

Whats the championship points?

sequentialbox · 3 Nov 2008, 00:15 (Ref:2326524)

Lam pak once again you are totally wrong, Bamber doesn't need to win V6, he proved his point in much reknown categories.
Don't know what you mean by he can get lost in a1???
He will not race in chengdu but will do in sepang for a1 (track where he has done millions of laps) so he will miss shanghai v6 round.
