Last open track day also on weekdays. If i'm not mistaken it is on wednesday. If it's on monday i'm in. :)
someone called kumar and said that 7th jan got track day, but that day is monday....
Monday?...haiyaa!...they think all peoples here are "super big boss" ka?...can left opis ikut suka hati...the Porsche owner maybe la...someone called kumar and said that 7th jan got track day, but that day is monday....
Or something like Gunsai Trek...ekekekeke...cabutzzz!what we need is some thing like the old batu 3 track w/ low budget expenses. no need nice grand stand, no need FIA, simple pit area, important is a nice track.
If we hv 1 in the north, 1 in the centre & 1 in the south (PG)... that will be the best!!
As for the SIC, I think it hv many private bookings as it is cheaper then others F1 tracks.
Ok, I've just managed to get through to the track office. They said the track is being resurfaced and that the next available track day might be in April.
This is absolutely ridiculous. Am I the only one who feels like it's pointless to have our own circuit when we can't even get a chance to drive it? I understand that the staff might be on leave, but for goodness sake, is updating the site calendar so difficult?
Like many of you here, I've spent tons of money on my car to make it a more track-oriented machine, but I'm really pissed that I can't even learn to drive my car on the limit or even use 60% of my car's potential. I'm easy on the gas pedal and try to stay safe on public roads, because that's no place for racing. But every time I'm hopeful for a track day, I'm disappointed. Some people resort to mountain backroads occasionally to satisfy the urges for cornering g's and some redline action. But it's not safe, or legal.
HPC and GRA autocross days are great for learning, but very limiting. There's endless waiting just to get out on track, and actual track time is very little for the money you pay and time you spend there.
I've gone to SIC to find 2-3 Porsche cup cars from Singapore taking their time doing setups and evaluation. I know that anyone who can afford to pay the rental fees deserves the track, but c'mon. A whole friggin' track just for 2-3 cars? Only one or two cars were out at any one time on that day. It seems like such a waste.
I'm not aiming my frustrations at anyone in particular. I'm just so frustrated and disappointed that we have this world class facility, but those of us who don't have Porsches rarely stand a chance to get track time, if any.
Would the powers that be rather we take it to the streets? There are plenty of sensible, legitimate car enthusiasts in the Klang Valley, I'm sure. The track is responsible for the surge in motorsports interest in the country, and almost singlehandedly multiplied the size of the tuning industry.
But we're all modded up, and have nowhere to go.
This is unacceptable. What's the point?
Anyone with any inside stories on what really goes on at SIC, please chime in. I'd like to believe that there is hope yet for the rest of us who want a decent chance at safe, organised ways of enjoying our cars.
Because the situation now is utter rubbish.

bro...i agree! why not we as the members of ZTH forums put our money n effort and find a piece of land in bangi area or banting ka and convert it to a race track. it not need to be big like tsukuba or even like the legendary btsc. just 15 ft wide or can accomodate two cars abreast so overtaking can be done. and put 10 to 20 corners or as appropriate to make it fun. i suggest it to be around 2 to 3 km in distance. there are many tracks in japan dvds that can be based on. got my inspiration while driving thru felda reserves from tg. malim to sabak bernam and there right in the middle of the palm trees a motocross dirt track..i know its hard but wit the right contacts and strategies, i think this can be done..what we need is some thing like the old batu 3 track w/ low budget expenses. no need nice grand stand, no need FIA, simple pit area, important is a nice track.
