The Genting Time Attack Video

Here is the video I promised. Here i present you Genting Time Attack Jan 2011. Enjoy!

The Hillclimb

Somewhere in January I decided to go for a Hillclimb using the Genting Sempah old road to go up to Genting Highlands instead of using the conventional Karak Highway after much discussion with my friend Zamil. In fact the Sempah way is much much more challenging as it consists of more bends although lower speeds than of Karak and not to mention much more dangerous too. 1 mistake you will be having the leap of faith.

Introducing the Drivers:

Went up fast but came down driving gently. It was a great day so enjoy the piccies:

My Boss Takumil

I'm currently editing the Time Attack video going up from the 1st police hut to the apartments up there and it will take some time so in the next post i will post the vid up. If i'm not mistaken it took me 13minutes to reach with a bit of traffic that day. Till the next post see ya!

It's been a long time

I've been absent from all the automotive stuff and had turned this blog into a 'sohai' blog recently... I'm back now, it will be fully back to automotive from now on. hehe.... Lots of stuff happened to my car recently...

This mainly in December!

Then became this

Guess what? This Blue-ish bumper broke too. So now it's sporting a Silver Kouki Bumper. Hopefully soon I can paint it back to its former glory when I am financially better off. Brake pads need changing real bad too... Will update pics on the Kouki bumper in the next post... Till then Cheerz!

Still got it after 2 months break i guess ;)

Mishaps

Approximately 2 months ago, I was given a 3 test all in the space of 2 days. 1st was Merdeka night on the way up to Genting, a Mitsubishi Pajero cut into my lane and I jammed my brake... was 1 feet away from an accident.

2nd was the scariest, I went into oversteer mode at 160km/h due to suddenly the road turned from dry into wet on Karak. Half of Karak was wet and the 1st half wasn't. Somehow a month later someone died in Karak with a Honda Integra DC5. I look back and think if I had hit anything it could have been fatal because after oversteering I spun my car 1 time as well. I always think about it and thank god because I seriously felt that day there was an angel protecting me and surrounding me but I admit I was reckless to take corners at those speeds on the public road.

Finally 3rd time at OUG. Maybe god decided to give me a small punishment due to my reckless driving. I was hit by a camry at the side. Luckily the impact wasn't very big so my whole driver side doors was dented. I thank you god for the punishment, I have learnt my lesson and I thank you for protecting me and not letting me get hurt in the 2nd incident.

These 3 are the mishaps. We chinese say that sometimes in life we will be put through the paces by god with 3 unfortunate events. If we've been good then we will pass all three with no problems but well I guess I had been naughty XD...

p.s Well not that naughty... :)
