Sunday Drive with Shalie at Sempah

2012-02-01T21:55:00.000+08:00

What's up hillrunners. It's been a while since I dropped a post here. Recently I've been active during the day time now. This all started when I got word of a Sunday drive from my buddy Ajim. That night we were chilling with SPOC at USJ. So he gave me word about the run the next day.

I met up with Ajim the next morning at his place. His cousin Apek Swift tagged along with us. Word was Shalie organized this run. Plus, I haven't seen the dude for quite a while. We all met up with him at a roti canai stall at UIA in Gombak. There, Shalie was with Syawal, Kudut, and Afdhal. Afhdal just got out of the garage with a fresh exterior on his UK spec Satria. Now it's red with an OEM look. Kudos for him.

After breakfast, we went to the usual meet up point at the bridge. There, we met Khalid driving a Honda Accord. We first met Khalid at a Battle Gear game session at Alamanda Putrajaya the day before. We did last checks on the cars before we took off.

The hillclimb was led by Shalie and Kudut, followed by Ajim and Apek, me and Syawal, Afdhal and Khalid. That morning, there were a lot of bicycles on the Genting Sempah road. It made us be on our toes so we don't hit anyone. But we still did a fast cruise.

After that, we hung out at the RnR. Shortly we took off and decided to climb Bukit Tinggi which I consider one of the most scenic touges in Malaysia. This time, Apek took Ahim's ride for a spin and tried to chase Syawal on Bukit Tinggi. He managed to stay with him but Syawal wasn't shakened. Better luck next time. On a different note, Shalie's ride started having problems with his axle drive shaft. At the top, he and Apek immediately check the problem. Turns out the drive shaft was worn out.

After chilling for a while, we started going downhill straight from Bukit Tinggi to Genting Sempah non-stop. The traffic lessened so we shook down our rides pretty well. But Shalie had to hold back due to the problem he's experiencing. After that, we chilled at the bridge before going our separate ways. Until next time, enjoy the video and pics. Until next time, stay ill yo!

Sempah with the "Abe2"

2012-01-07T13:56:00.000+08:00

What's up guys. The year just started and the activities are just starting. Last night, I received word from Taka that there was going to be a run at 2am. During that time, I was at the Ampang Lookout so I decided to go. Once at the Touge Bistro, I met up the usual dudes. Alif Botak, The Quatros, and Aiman Civic R. Then I met these two new dudes from Kelantan. I asked more about them and it turns out it was their first time running Genting Sempah.

I rode with this dude named Maliki. I asked him a bit, and it shows it was clearly his first time. He was lucky I was in the passenger seat. Once at the mountain, I showed him the Sempah racing line. The dude was nervous, but he did very well for a first timer. Kudos for you, dude.

Once at the RnR, Maliki told us that he was shaken by the road, but we knew he loved it. Ater that, we continued up to Genting. But the Quatros went back early. Soon after having a round of drinks, we went back down. This time I rode the Civic R. It was great meeting these new guys, hope to see them again at the touge.

After finishing the run, I rode with Aiman to fetch my bike. But Aiman told me to drive his car. I thought he was kidding, but if a guy asks you to get a crack at his CTR, never say no. Honestly, his ride makes me nervous, but I have to admit that I liked it. Well, that's all from me. Until next time, peace!

The Run Before New Years

2012-01-05T00:26:00.000+08:00

What's up guys. You must be wondering what happens next after the SIC attack that morning. Syawal texted me for a run up Sempah to "lepas geram" since during his run at SIC, the Starlet broke down. Co-incidentally, Muz i10, Kudut, Zoul Kancil, Taka and Alif were available, so they tagged along.

Not much to talk about except that for the first time this year, I got car sick while riding with Syawal. Straight up a good driver using every skill in the book. Weight transfers, heel toes, tuck ins, you name it. His hillclimb only took him 11 minutes.

After that, Kudut gave the idea to head to Bukit Tinggi. We gave it a try and it was also my first time to go up there. The corners and slope was quite an epic sight. When it comes to most beautiful, Bukit Tinggi made my pick.

Just like the Sempah hillclimb, the downhill run by Syawal was just as epic. But there was a little twist, just before the finish line, a truck took our side of the road. We hit a wet spot and Syawal's ride oversteered but he manage to save his ride. Right after that, we smiled and laughed, it was the perfect finale for the run and the whole year. We arrived at Gombak at 7pm with smiles on our faces. A great finale for a great year of action. Until next time, peace!

SIC New Years Attack

2012-01-01T04:15:00.002+08:00

What's up guys. I would just like to say a Happy New Year. I know I had a good one. I might not have a party on New Years eve, but I had one 15 hours before. I was invited to join a Sepang track day session by Ariel EF9 and Oreedo when I was hanging out at Juara Seafood next to the Wise Speed Autoworks in Subang. I arrived at 9.30am and met up with Syawal, Shalie TR, Azim, at the track. It turns out Ariel was renting out his Toyota Starlet that I tested out the night before at Wise Speed.

At the same time, Botak Traffic and Azham were making their own lap times with a track tuned rally Impreza GC8. After a few runs, the Starlet faced minor problems and had to retire. Turns out there was something wrong with the connecting rods of the engine. The Impreza on the other hand had problems with traction. On that day, a lot of Subarus came out. The other cars that ran that day were and Integra DC5, A R34 Skyline GTR, A Renault Megane RS and Megane R26R and a Toyota Altezza.

At 12 noon, we rapped up our runs and finished our track day. I left with a definite sunburn. We chilled at a restaurant in Sepang and had lunch. I for sure had a good time and will be back. I know you guys want to know what happens that evening. Stay tuned to find out.

The KKK: Kuala Klawang Kei-Cars

2011-12-27T20:02:00.002+08:00

What's up guys, it's been nearly a month since the last post. The reason is December has been a quiet month. My ride has been collecting dust since it hasn't ran for a while. On a quiet Monday afternoon, my buddy Kudut gave me a call telling me that Amir Kancil was in town and wanting to run the Klawang pass. I agreed to tag along.

After picking up Kudut, we met Amir at the Tekali dam at 5.30pm. Half hour later, Zoul Kancil, Taka and their buddies arrived. After that, we went off.

That evening, there was a lot of traffic since it was a Christmas weekend. We did quite a casual run. About 8 minutes plus to the Selangor border. Once there, I tried out the Negeri Sembilan side, alone. It was my first time and it turns out to be a great stretch of touge. The road leads to the town of Kuala Klawang in 25km.

After I got back, we straight away went downhill on the Selangor side. But I didn't tell the others that my brakes were already fading. Smooth move smart a$$. We finished that run led by Zoul, followed by Amir, me and Hannan MyVi.

We had dinner at the Ampang lookout and met Ayap Neo there since he wanted to return something to me. We all left at 9pm that night. All went well. Until next time

(Special thanks to Kudut for the video)

Run to First World with the R

2011-12-05T20:04:00.001+08:00

What's up guys. I know last month has been kinda slow but December was opened up by a run to the all so famous First World Plaza on the top of Genting Highlands.

It turned out the boys left without me, so I hopped on the bike at climbed Genting Sempah via Karak Expressway (E8). Once at the RnR, I met up with Mizta Neo, except he wasn't driving his Neo. He showed up with two friends in an FN2R Civic. Damn! He was followed by Taka, Zoul Zharif, Azam Neo, Soon Lee, and others.

Temptations took over, I took the chance to take the CTR for a spin. At first the engine died since I wasn't familiar with its clutch. Once I was going, I got to feel the superb ride quality. I loved it. It was also a great chick magnet. Trust me, if you want attention, a CTR will help.

I left my bike at the Petronas at Sempah and rode with Azam. The first leg was from RnR Sempah to Awana. We let Mizta driving the CTR lead, at first he was swerving the car to warm up the tires. Once it hit the temperature, the CTR just vanished through the corners. The VTEC was roaring. Me and Azam just watch silently in the car. Damn the CTR's fast.

Mizta got out of the car smiling. We know he had a good run. So we all got together for yum cha at the usual mamak. After a while, Soon Lee told us he needed to refuel but he needed Ron 97 fuel. Since Petronas didn't have it, we thought of going to Esso at the top of Genting. So we all agreed to go for the second leg to First World Plaza.

So we continued, Azam tried to catch Mizta in the CTR but failed. Soon Lee in his California Wagon went further but also failed. It felt like a very quick run but the road itself was full of trash. It was very hazardous.We got to the Esso and it turns out there was no Ron 97 too. So we hung out for a while and started the downhill run after.

We started slow first since there was low visibility and hazardous conditions. Once we reached Awana, we all stepped on it. Mizta flew with the CTR while Taka tried to chase with this Persona. It was a totally fun and action packed night. The run ended at 5.30am. Me, Soon Lee, Mizta and Azam returned to KL via the E8 while Taka and Zoul took the old Sempah route. Well that's all from me. Happy hillrunning :)

Handazaka: Fun In The Wet

2011-11-21T04:21:00.002+08:00

What's up guys. Now everyone knows that Bukit Putus Route 51 aka 'Handazaka' can be brutal in wet conditions, right? Well on Saturday night, we all had a play date with Miss Mossy Moss. Among the guys there were Amir, Azrul HCCC, Shalie TR, Kudut, and others. That night, I also decided to bring some of my buddies from MMU who were enthusiastic about touge.

Conditions were wet, that might be the cause of the lack of attendance.Reminded me about the first time I tried Bukit Putus. Total disaster! I would call this one of my 'revenge' runs. First I checked the course with my buddy Vincent and his girl. While Shah, Syahmi, and Nini following behind. Damn, it was slippery. Since Vince was a first timer, he was excited. He thought he was in Initial D, LOL.

We arrived at the top. 30 seconds later, we were welcomed by the Terachi Police. Damn, I'm on my own! I thought of a good excuse, told them we were going to have a BBQ with some friends. When the others arrived, they actually played along. One of the funniest moments of touge. I never seen Shalie smiled that wide ever. After the cops left, we started running. Kudut took me for a ride experimenting on FF drifting. But that was just the beginning.

After that, me, Azrul, Shah and Kudut had a run. At one point, Kudut's car oversteered and got stuck in a ditch. But we got him out, with mud and grass in our ears and mouths. Then me, Benu BLM, Amir, and Zoul had a run. Now this time Amir had a slight miss and scratched his fender. It was his first time.

Then my buddies tried the road out, Syahmi was driving a Satria. Spun out just before the last hairpin. While Cumey on the other hand just took his time and cruised. We all did countless runs up and down. For me, it was practice for wet conditions.

It was 3am, everybody got hungry. Just before we went down, Kudut said to me. "Everyone crashed tonight except for you. When are you gonna crash?" I was shaken by those words. But what the heck, as long as I stay careful, I'm safe. On the last downhill run, I don't know what went wrong but I tried my luck by chasing my mentor, Shalie. It was epic. At one of the long corers, I slipped like hell stopping just before the roadside. Shocked but I kept going. At the finish, I still saw Shalie's tail lights. That was a big satisfaction for me. No disrespect, my man.

We all arrived safely at the bottom, but it turns out Kudut had another slight miss. This time, damaging his bumper. After checking the damage, Benu had to leave. The others went to the local mamak to grab an early breakfast. At 4am, we all left home. Kelly Scha performed surprisingly well in the wet that night. Another fun run at Handazaka. Until next time, guys.

Chill: GBKT with Ariel, Oreedo and friends

2011-11-12T17:39:00.000+08:00

11.11.11 was an epic date. I spent it doing some photo work that evening. When the sun went down, while the boys go touge'ing up Sempah, I take time to slow down to chill with the big boys of Malaysian Touge.Ariel EF9 invited me to Damansara to have some Ginger Beef Kuey Tiow with his boys. Why not? I was free on that Friday night, right?

I got there around 11, Ariel was accompanied by Reedzuan "Oreedo", Syawal, and friends. We chilled there up until 2.30am. I realized the opportunity I had so I asked them a lot on improving my driving, weight transfer, etc. Syawal even used this cool app on his iPhone to show weight transfer.

Besides that, we also "bertarbiah" about Touge ethics. How drivers respect each other during a run. It is known as 'the pace'. We just don't see that anymore. (Even I realized that).

Lastly, Ariel and Oreedo started to tell me something that I find very valuable, good starter cars for both track use and touge use. This is his picks.

1. EF9 preferably with a B18C (Of course, Ariel drives this car and he loves it)

2. EG6..he says by the time I graduate, we can get this cheap.

3. DC2..pricey to buy but cheap body parts, the car itself is an FF that behaves like an FR.

It was nice chilling with them, got a lot of valuable knowledge and info. Well, that's all I have to say. Until next time.

Genting Highland: Scha 2 Scha...Belalang 2 Black Neo

2011-11-07T20:13:00.001+08:00

What's up. How's Hari Raya? Ours was a great one. Who would have thought spending their Aidil Adha on the mountain. We did! It started when we had a little party at my house. Taka TG, Alif Botak, Kudut, and Ajim came over. That's when we decided to run Route 68 Sempah.

Taka and Alif sped off first since there was light rain in Puchong. Me, Kudut and Ajim cruised on MRR2. That's when Aiman Neo called, so I invited him to join us. We arrived at the Touge Bistro to meet Afdal. Without realizing it, we kinda Punk'd Aiman since he's all alone at the starting bridge, sorry :P After that we met up with him and started our hill climb led by Aiman (since he had HID lights).

Schatria Reddu at Kudut Curve

After finishing Sempah, we talked to decide where to go next. First we thought of going to Bukit Tinggi. Then one of us suggested going to Genting Highland. Not to Awana, but to First World! Damn, that's a tall order. But we went up anyway.

After Awana, our engines were struggling. Kelly can't stay in her power band. And to top it all off. Visibility was near zero.But we stepped on the throttle like hell. But thank god we made it to the top. Once there, we were kinda lost for a while to look for a parking spot due to the fog. Once we parked our rides, we had an early breakfast at Old Town White Coffee.

Kelly Scha at First World

After that, we went for a slow downhill cruise down Genting. Brakes were spongy, low visibility and it was friggin cold up there. So we stopped by for a while, me and Ajim sat in Afdal's ride, Belalang Tempur to keep warm since his car had a heater. Lucky punk, I'm freezing in my car. Then, we stopped by Petronas to refill the gas.

Aiman went down via Karak Expressway E8. That leaves us to go downhill Sempah. First, Afdal led the pack down. Halfway down, Afdal signaled me to lead. Yes, finally Kelly Scha can gallop! Hehe... So I change my pace and gave it a little speed while listening to The Roof Remix by Mariah Carey and Full Crew. Ripping through the mountain with no pressure. Unlike Genting Highlands, conditions were perfect.

Belalang Bertempur!

At 6am, we finally finished our run. It was a fun run with no casualties. After a quick smoke and a chat, we went our separate ways. Happy Aidil Adha, drive safe! Until next time.


That's an EXPENSIVE meal!

Quit pedo-ing around

Bukit Putus: Halloween Run

2011-10-30T13:34:00.004+08:00

Back for revenge, those were the three words that I held on to when I got the invite from Kudut to run Bukit Putus. The first time I run Bukit Putus 3 months ago was a total disaster. It was wet, my tires didn't grip, and to top it all off, my skills weren't not enough. First I picked up my buddies Syahmi and Nini from MMU. Then we met up with Kudut after that. On the way there, we went through the old Bangi Road which happened to be a touge.I don't why Kudut wanted to go through there. I guess it was practice.

We arrived at Senawang at 1am, Everyone was already there. For the first time they were early. We met u with the locals Amir, Pijan Purple, and the guys from Malacca Shalie TR, and Azrul HCCC. It was great to see Pijan's Corolla back out, or else it's the family's minivan that becomes the victim.

After that, we went up doing some runs. Kudut driving a rented Kancil went crazy, using the handbrake at the hairpins. I tried out my first downhill run with Azrul, damn I still didn't got the rhythm. Then we went back for another hill climb. He noticed I was faster on the hill climb, despite the fact my Kelisa was a 1.0 litre.

After that we had a downhill session together, as usual I was dead last =,=" Shalie was doing well but he kinda overshot the hairpins. Chill, mistakes happens. On the second hill climb, Kudut got a crack at Amir's ride. He was taking hairpins off road! Damn he's crazy! At least he have a few tricks up his sleeve.

After that, we chilled at the top of the slope. Looking down at the highway. Talking about car stuff, and secrets of going faster on Bukit Putus which is for you to find out yourself. At the same time, I wanted to cool off my brakes first. After 20 minutes and two Marlboros, I wanted to go for another round. I asked Pijan to ride with me since he's a local. Great co-pilot he is, showed me how to take the corners faster. Got it and applied it. Thanks Pijan.

At 3.30am, we were all hungry so we went down the hill for the last time. At first it was casual, once at the first hairpin, things just went nuts. Shalie put the pedal to the metal, I was taking every off road shortcut available, Kudut was hand-braking all the way, while Pijan and Amir ripped through the corners.

After having some drinks and roti canai, we went our separate ways. It was one of the best runs ever. But you'll can expect me to be back for more. Well, untill next time, peace and Happy Halloween :P

Genting Sempah: Run of the Black and White

2011-10-24T18:08:00.001+08:00

What's up guys, have you been touge'ing lately? Well these guys have. That night I was chilling with my buddy in Selayang when I got a text from Hafis Quatro inviting me for a run. I only had my bike while Kelly was at home so I told him I'll be a passanger. I got to the Touge Bistro, we waited with Taka-San but no one showed up. Only this new kid named Alif driving an all black Neo.

This is not an advert

So, we decided to just run at 12am. We had a killer run, everything went smooth. I was even surprised by Alif's skill and talent. Damn he was fast! He told me that he went up Sempah for 3 days in a row! Damn!

We arrived at the RnR. I tried to get to know the new guy. It turns out that he was a regular track driver competing in Saturday Night Fever. Oh, so that's where the skills come from.

So, we continued downhill to get some roti canai at Gombak. It was casual at first, but suddenly Hafis stopped his car at the waterfall. He decided to let Taka drive. Sh!t. So as usual he starts slow, but knowing that he owns Sempah, he started speeding up. The cool thing was, Alif was kissing bumpers with Taka and that was incredible. Running at an average at 90-120kph, it was an adrenaline rush. After ripping through Sempah, we arrived at the roti canai stall at the bottom to fill our bellies. Had a round of drinks with that, then we went our separate ways. It was the best run this week since it was the first dry midnight run.

I would also like to take this opportunity to say congratulations to Alil and Bee for tying the note on on the 16th October. Hope you guys will have a great marriage. Til next time yo!

SHAS Tech Reunion

2011-10-22T15:06:00.000+08:00

What's up guys. I just got back from a long ride to Kuala Lipis and back. It's been a while since I last set foot in the school. After class that Friday, I straight away grabbed my bag and left. I received a call from my old friend Izzat asking if I was coming. We agreed to meet up at RnR Genting Sempah. He took the E8 Karak Highway while I took the Route 68 touge.

He was surprised we weren't too far apart. LOL! Maybe it's because I was familiar with Route 68. If not, maybe it's because I had two wheels less. So after meeting up, we raced straight to Lipis, conditions were perfect.

Once there, we were welcomed by Miss Dina and the students. After registering, Izzat went off to town while I was just hanging around the school watching the teachers and ex-students playing woodball. Cikgu Azmi asked if I want to give it a try. I refused since I don't know how to play. (Damn, what a shame =,=")

That evening, I chilled at Mr. Sukri's house under block V of the hostel. Because of being exhausted after a 200km ride, I dozed off.

That night, we had a nice buffet dinner with rice, mutton, and chicken. It was damn good. We all had a good time. I even had a chance to see Mr Haidzir and Miss Hjh Nadjah and other teachers that knew me. They say I look older and more built up (obviously but I don't know about the built up part =,="). I even had a chance to talk to the current students on how to survive in that school, have a good time there and most importantly, how to excel in there studies. I might not be the best student, but I can give a pointer or two.

After that, I chilled at Izzat's place for a while. His mom with nice enough to make some coffee for the trip, thanks. After that, I rode off into the night back to KL. It was a cold night, but it was dry. Perfect! Special thanks to Mr. Al-Holidin for organizing a great event. We all had a good time. And thanks to Mr. Mustafa and Mr Sukri for letting me crash at their place.

Thaks again, until next time, peace!

Light Trail

2011-10-20T14:06:00.007+08:00

What's up guys. Last Wednesday night, I was out in KL doing a photography assignment on traffic light trails. That night was drizzling and I didn't bring an umbrella or jacket. Some of the locations I went was Merdeka Square, Pavilion,and P.Ramlee Street.I worked and stood in the rain from 8pm till 11pm. After work is done, I went straight to Don's Char Kuew Tiow to have a round drinks with Taka-San and Alif Botak. Check out the shots yourself. Enjoy :)

HOW TO MAKE TRAFIC LIGHT TRAILS
Things you need
1.A DSLR Camera
2.Tripod
3.Remote release
4.A busy street

How to do it
1.Find a busy street and go to that location at night. Set up the tripod at the desired angle.
2.Set the camera to the lowest possible ISO and set the aperture one stop from the smallest aperture (f16 or f22 depending on the camera).
3.Set the shutter speed to a suitable speed, experiment with different speeds e.g. 20, 30, 45, 60 sec.
4.Shoot during continuous traffic flow comes. Shoot using a remote release. If you don't have one, use the the timer. Its practically the same function.
5.Get creative!

Two white cups and I got that drink
Could be purple, it could be pink
Depending on how you mix that shit
Money that we got, never get that shit

Until next time guys, peace!

Route 68 Sempah: A lovely evening

2011-10-04T17:03:00.001+08:00

What's up everybody! You guys might already know about the time that I got a crack at that Red Suns FC3S, but I haven't wrote about the evening run with Taka-san an the Quatro boys.

It all started when we all got to Kerul Botak's wedding, but we we're so late there was no food left. So Kerul told us he would buy us dinner at Wangsa Walk Mall at 8pm that night. So we didn't know what to do in the mean time. Then Amir had an idea, he suggest we go for a cruise on to Genting Sempah via Route 68. So we thought of it, then we agreed. What the hell, its just a cruise right?

So about halfway up, we stop by at this hairpin to snap photos and have a smoke. All was going well, we even tried hand brake turns at the corner. Until some truck driver yelled at us for fooling around. So we decided to bolt from there since we were all thirsty.

So once at the RnR, we parked the cars under the RnR an went upstairs to the food court to drink. So we chilled and hung out just to kill the time. Had a few laughs too. When we checked the time, it was already 8pm. So we called Kerul Botak to inform him and started our downhill run.

As usual, you know who was trying to kiss Kelly Scha's ass. Sure he's fast, but does he have to show off all the time..damn! So once we were at the workshop before the first corner, he stopped to wait for the others. I could stop as well but knowing my disadvantage of going downhill, I just kept going. F*ck it, they're gonna catch up anyway.

So I just kept going and going waiting for anyone to pass me, that time never came. Perfect time to practice my downhill. The further I was going, the more I pushed. It was all good with no interruptions, just too bad I didn't clock the time. It felt quick. Once at the bottom, I turned off my lights, turned on the hazards a burned a cigarette. Three puffs later, there they are. They were surprised to see me at the bottom already.

After that, we were all on the way to Wangsa Walk to meet up with Abam Botak. Selamat Pengantin Baru. That night he was nice enough to buy us KFC. It was finger lickin gooood. After filling our stomachs, we went off our separate ways.

Before I sign off, I would like to say to the new Touge Runners out there, if you wanna be faster, don't rely 100% on your car. It's your skills. You'll never be faster unless you train and practice a lot. From there, you'll be able to be faster on the touge, safely. Peace!

Kelawang Nights: FC3S Out From Nowhere

2011-10-02T06:38:00.001+08:00

How do I start this...First thing, the attendance of the Kelawang Nights event was totally disappointing with nobody showing up. That's what happens when a noob makes an event. I was chilling with Amir at a mamak in Pekan Ulu Langat. While waiting for my accomplice, Shalie of TOUGE-R to show up, me and Amir saw someone passing our stall going our way. Ryosuke of Red Suns. I quickly called up Taka-san to demand for Ryosuke's number so that we have more runners to Kelawang.

Once we got his attention, Ryosuke told us he will be on the Tekali Pass so we better hurry if we wanna meet up with him. SO we saddled up and head straight for the pass.At first I was just cruising, suddenly when Don't Turn It Off by Go2 started playing, I started speeding up through the pass. Amir and Shalie were puzzled by my sudden change of driving behavior. Honestly, I was puzzled too, lol!

We met up with Ryosuke at opposite directions. We were heading eastbound while Ryosuke was heading westbound, kinda felt like an Initial-D battle. So we stopped at the side, introduced each other and offered him to run with us. Despite the bad-ass car, he was a really nice guy. So we started running the Tekali Pass, I was running faster than how I'm suppose to, so I nearly loss grip at a long right corner. So damn scary, should be more careful.

Since the lack of attendance for the 'so-called' event I organized, I can actually concentrate on setting a time on the Kelawang Pass. (This happens to be a criteria in order to join TOUGE-R) So I went of to set a personal time with Kelly Scha, which happens to be a stock-ass Kelisa with auto-transmission. With the help and motivation of Ryosuke and his FC3S, I pushed very hard. My time is as following

Kelawang Hillclimb: 08'15"06"'

Kelawang Downhill: 08'19"06"'

I'm satisfied with those times, especially since I'm running a Kelisa. After a full shakedown on the Kelawang Line. Ryosuka gave me an opportunity to co-pilot him in his FC3S. I was like "Sure, how bad could it be". God, I was dead wrong,! I nearly loss my stomach and saw my life flash before me. He was fast as f*ck! But Alhamdulillah I lived.

Lastly, I would like to thank Shalie TOUGE-R with brother and sister in their K3 Myvi, Amir in his L500 "Bumble Busuk" and Ryosuke Red Suns inhis FC3S for coming out tonight. It was totally a fun yet adrenaline pumping run. Untill next time, Peace

The Bukit Putus BBQ Video is out!

2011-09-30T22:42:00.001+08:00

I have to admit, this guy is a genius. This is the first video out from the Bkt Putus BBQ last week. I have to admit I had great time. Thanks Taka for the chicken, Pijan Purple for the sausage and Abg Rafidi for the nasi impit. It actually felt like an Aidil Fitri BBQ. Here's the video, special thanks to Azrul Azizi of HCCC Southern Touge. Enjoy!

This is all so new

What's up guys. I just started using blogger, but I still have trouble getting around the CCS, HTML etc. To be honest, I kinda out dated. That's why only now I have a blog. Well, I guess that's all. Gotta get some rest cause tomorrow after Kerul Botak's wedding, I'll be running the Kelawang line for another midnight touge session. Until next time, peace!

PS: Congrats to Kerul Botak. Time for family planning. Ngeh3!
