yet another eventful weekend

it's been yet another long time since i last updated this post.. as you all know i came back from taiwan. and i have hell alot of things to do... also i got order from my customer which is a really good thing at this economy down turn...
in this post... i'll emphasize on 4 thing which happened over the 2 weekend.

earlier the week before...
HPC track day !!!... it's been like 1 blardy year i haven't been pushing myself toward the limitation in driving fast... yes then now i managed to do it... with my own car... properly setup.... wider tires... rebuilt suspension... and it's pure adrenalin.... pure fun.... i'm running group 3 :) which is basically for expert group.. i have fun.. i didn't misbehave on track .... although there are some slower cars in there.. just have my own sweet time and fun time.... but i realise that my tires managed to last for 5 laps only.. before the tires reached maximum gripping temperature.... where i lose my grip over corners... that's how hard i'm pushing my car... :)

then the thing that happened over the this weekend
i was recomended by a friend of mine to be the instructor of HPC events. yes... instructor for driving on the Sepang F1 Circuit. to guide the begineers. and on saturday i had my instructor training...
1st thing in the morning.. i realised that my car's radiator hose broke... what a bad day to start... and i have to get off with a 400 bucks 2nd handed silicon hose. pain... then i managed to reach to the training ground.. slightly late as i have to dissemble my car and go grab the part in another car.. and go back home and install it... and head to the training ground.
the training was really awesome !!! some of those are basic.. but it's something that i haven't been realising i'm doing it.. so.. good training.. the highlight of the training... getting to drive in 2 very awesom car... Toyota Corolla LE... yeah blardy old car with god knows how many years of suspension in it. we all did trash the car on rain... making the car's rear wheel one side leaving the ground when cornering... the 2nd car is the HPC's Celica Track car. VERY AWESOME SHARP HANDLING... infact.. it's easier to drive than my car.. probably it's the lightweight that matters there... yes i get to do autocross on the cars IN RAIN... that's pure fun !... so end of the day.. i go home with a wheel punctured by a SCREW i pick up from the training ground. and knowing my car understeers ALOT.... so end of the day i have to spend 150 bucks to get my alignment done up correctly. hopefully i can perform better.

2nd interesting part
Quattro... yeah it sound like the Audi's Quatro technology which is 4WD... but this one is the club in down town KL. opposite KLCC... Avenue K. this round we started going into autumn bar... AGAIN... it's packed !!! so packed that can't stand.. can't walk... and they got a table at the walk way where everyone walking up and down.... so then all moved up to Winter Bar.... that's the highlight of the night. 10 degrees ambient temperature... cooling... smoke free....and there there's this another room called chill room.. sub zero...nice to hang there when the alcohol kicks in and the face gets red... :) gone home half drunk this round... probably i got tired from the training of driving...

3rd interesting part...
Genting autocross event... after a night in Quattro 10 degree.... the day in genting is 16 degrees when the wind blow... plus... it's raining.... so... blardy cold 2 days straight down. but then this autocross i wasn't rolled under competition class... i was left into a non-competition class.. although i dun have THAT much experience on autocross... there are alot of nice picture taken as well during this event... because they have one of the most happening car club i've ever seen... the mini club.. see how they decorate their car...it's really wicked !... so.. as the day goes... the mini finish their run...and my turn to have some fun.... with the new alignment settings.... i was having hell of a fun... my car is sharp... but a little understeer on low speed. but generally my car's control skill i realise it has significantly went up... and it's real fun.... accidently ... my time was 2nd fastest among the turbo cars... and i won myself car waxing voucher.... :) that's was a bonus of the day.... oh yeah.. did i mentioned i met Leona Chin ? at first i have no idea who's she...nor what she do... then i get to know.. she's the driver of Red Bull racing team for MME race. wow.. 22 year old drifter girl with pro driving license. and a cute little girl... holding a soft toy everywhere she goes...hahaha really doesn't make much sense as she's a pro driver :)

anyway.. this is a blardy long blog... weekend had ended... and time to get back to my work...time to deliver products to my customer... get back more money.. buy a new anti-roll bar for my car.... so that i dun get that much understeer. :)
