HPC Next: Pasir Gudang December 9th 2006

[Crash]

It was an absolute gem of an experience. Pasir Gudang rocks! Way more fun than Sepang with its off camber turns and blind corners. Reminded me a lot of Batu Tiga, only better! Got some video footage which I hope to upload to YouTube when its ready :)

A HUGE thank you to HPC and R3 for a wonderful event. Can't wait for Pasir Gudang again in the future!

Crash,

Please send me the video of our runs.

If can, I want all of it. It would be nice to see which line the other fellas took.

A great HPC event folks!

Can't wait for the next Pasir Gudang track holiday package. My favourite bit is that almost everyone you encounter on track is someone you know from R3TA and GRA which made it all the more thrilling. From lonely time attacks to all-out track battle.

Videos are on the way! Just don't look at my lines lar...all funny one...

 

[alexklg]

wah, so many sifu were there? my god... i didn't get to meet you guys...

 

[AffectionEstima]

Thank you to all the participants, instructors, Tom from Zerotohundred, the Johor track personel and especially to R3 for a great event!

For those that got a ride with Faidzil, Faisal and Adian, I'm sure you were amazed at what the stock MME Waja and Gen2 can do on a track like Johor Circuit in the hands of these skilled R3 drivers.

Crash, deffinitely let me know when you get the video up on UTube.

Keon, Julian, Kean, Prozac, Crash and the rest of the guys, you are very welcome and really appreciate the comments. Johor Circuit is a rite of passage that all true drivers need to experience and I'm glad you guys felt the same way. Better things are coming from HPC and I look forward to having you guys. I would also love to hear your comments on how you think we can improve. You can always email me at [email protected]

Take care and see you soon,
Brian

Great event! All drivers had loads of fun! My first time at pasir gudang. It's more like street plus kuala klawang plus genting sempah roads all combined into one 3.86km track to me :regular_smile: Here's why : the surface of the track is just like on the streets, the cornering radius and combinations of the turns are like kuala klawang, the ever changing gradients of the track is just like genting sempah :_: . Best thing is, it's all managed in a legal and safe racing environment, coupled with pre-race briefing and proper racing know-how. And for creature comfort; hotel accommodation, food, drinks and ; what's priceless : endless stories to talk about for many many hours after the event :shades_smile:

PS : Unker champ; pay n join next track day, no excuses

Don't worry. You will see me there again after I give my green Wira a new make over.

Won't be green gunk anymore. More like vaginal white the next time we see it!

Too bad I din get a chance to sit in the MME Gen2 driven by Adian. I love the way he threw the car into the corners.

That was Faidzil Alang. He was the one "trail brake oversteering" into the turns, exiting all sideways.

 

[julianpang]

That was Faidzil Alang. He was the one "trail brake oversteering" into the turns, exiting all sideways.

Ahaaaa...... That was Faidzil. I would love to ride with him on the next track day. The "trail brake oversteering", smoking the rear inner wheel into the corner and exiting sideways really scared the crap out of me following close behind him.

I thought he overcooked it and loosing it and I kept a distance after that. After a few corners following behind him, I found out that he was in fact very much well in control. I guess his driving style can be a "tactic" against the rivals.

Adian also have his distinctive way of driving that day. He loves to throw the car into the corner but minus locking the rear inner wheel and exiting sideways. I was following him when he was driving Mioku's black Wira.

Apart from that, I didnt get a chance to follow the MME Waja and R3 Satria Neo to learn their lines. BTW, who was driving the Neo?

 

[alexklg]

yeah... i was sitting in either the saga or lotus, when i saw plumes of blue smoke at the entry of each corner... i was like, wth...

 

[faisal]

There was no R3 Satria Neo. That was a HPC participant with a std NEO and R3-lookalike stripes


Only The Waja MME and GEN.2 MME edition were driven by R3 personel for Taxi rides.

 

[alexklg]

hehehe... i am driving the R3 Neo-wannabe.. just a std 1.6 neo... ;) I think i need to learn from you rather than the other way around. ;)

 

[julianpang]

hehehe... i am driving the R3 Neo-wannabe.. just a std 1.6 neo... ;) I think i need to learn from you rather than the other way around. ;)

Ohhhh..... That was you.

You had me fooled, I thought it was the real R3 Neo from R3. ..... hahahahah....

Btw... nice ride.

 

[alexklg]

haha.. thanx bro...

you were the one with glasses and yellow tee?

 

[julianpang]

haha.. thanx bro...

you were the one with glasses and yellow tee?

No ler.... I was wearing black T-shirt (same T-shirt with one of the Johorian) and light brown cargo pants with glasses.

 

[alexklg]

WAHAHHAHAHHAHAa.... THAT's me lah.... hehehe.... ;)

the mythellogy shirt... hehehehe.... nice meeting you bro... :) Hope the next event can meet u again and learn stuff from you. ;)

Hahahahaha..... You want to learn from me? Not sure if it is a good idea coz HPC Pasir Gudang was my very first track outing and I have not even driven in Sepang b4. If you remember the white EK9 next to my pit, thats the guy we all should be learning from. He is Hammond Lai who drove in 2006 MME in the R3 Waja and got 3rd placing. He thought me the basics of track racing. He is the real sifu for balls out track driving.

Din know you were driving the Neo. I remember you came to my pit and intro yourself. Nice to meet you.
