Encounters With Other Cars

[joethurr]

happened to me twice, coppers usually have the weirdest requests, 1 of them just wanted me to make the continuous popping sound, rev limiter, the other just wanted to hear the RB growl... not a single one of them said anything about my heavy tinting or anything else..its all cool with me as long as i dont get hassled to fork out kopi money. Actually I kinda noticed how coppers are much more respectful to sport car owners, as long as u dont go all "im a gangster, touch me and u had it" on them..I wouldnt wanna brag but I think we do get some kinda special treatment... I dont know if you guys would agree entirely...

Let's start a new thread for cop encounter stories.

That should be interesting.:wavey:

 

[JaHaX]

faz ... heard u stalled ur car ... huhuhu ... which one are u using? ... i myself using GD-PRO ... cursing it almost every day last time, but when u used to it, hehehe ... banzai

pmpin ... encounter with police ... huhuhu, i'd rather not

 

[[PIMPIN]]

Dude,

GD-Pro is easy as hell to drive. Soccer mum's voted clutch of the year 08/09

 

[farizio]

i stalled [PIMPIN] 's car trying to do a hill start on a very steep hill hahaha
we went around looking for the steepest hill to try out the clutch

HKS GD-Pro is easier to use than what most people say it is..very light...i don't know what the big fuss is about...but if you're not used to it, hill starts can be tricky

I'm using Nismo Gmax Twin Spec II...but no use... replacement plates are impossible to come by... have to change

To be fair, Fariz did hell of a lot better than I did when I first drove the car. First time for me was like being at the rodeo - jumping, bucking like a wild bull. Plus, he was taking it easy I guess out of respect for a fellow enthusiasts ride; one that is still being run-in too.

Anyways, hope managed to change that stubborn mind of his to accept the HKS GD-Pro with open arms. Or better yet, triple plate joy.

I can understand how a car's added traction helps it go faster around corners but I think that on a straight road a superbike is faster than most cars especially from a standstill.

I mean, look at the Kawasaki ZX12R, Ducati 1098s, etc - all go from 0-100km/h in barely 3 seconds. I don't know, I just think that on straight roads the 1litre bikes would win easy.

Was driving along the Ulu Yam stretch (old road leading up towards Genting highlands) on a Sunday morning. Saw a grey coloured CBR1000RR pass the ENTIRE convoy of GTT's/GTR's/Porsche's and RX7's. Literally like 'potong sayur'. One particularly 'brave' GTR driver came out of the line in an attempt to chase down the Honda CBR1000RR from the picnic spot by the lake all the way till Ulu Yam town. I doubt the GTR even managed to catch a glimpse of the superbike judging from the way the bike was accelerating. I was driving at about 140kph and recall seeing the bike passing my window with its front wheel waving in the air. The rider bloody rode pass AT LEAST 2 GTR's and a RX7 on ONE-wheel. This guy was bloody skillful to be driving on such tiwsty bits with only 2 wheels, no ABS, no airbags, no power steering, no windscreen,etc. The last thing I saw was the bike disappearing into a turn in the distance with sparks coming out from the rider's knee puck. Makes me really wonder how most of us car drivers who are so used to driving with 4 wheels would fair riding a superbike up Genting or on the track. I reckon we'd just embarass ourselves!

Thumbs up to the Sunday rider and his 1 liter NA Honda and a bigger thumbs up to the GTR driver who dared to attempt chasing him down

wow...but those super bikes r heavy enuf to give them stability...

Bump: wow...but those super bikes r heavy enuf to give them stability...

Stability? What stability? 1-wheel drive. No LSD. No ABS. No power steering. No bucket seat. No windscreen.
Loved watching the rider counter steer, listening to the rear wheel sliding as he dropped gear and his knee pucks scraping as he entered the turn!
Just curious; why is it that all superbike riders seem to do exceptionally well when given a car with 4 wheels; but most 4 wheel drivers cant even manouvre a superbike properly around a parking lot

Once understeer the bikes goes straight smashing guard rail, once oversteer it flips you up side down,heehehe

Riders always rides superbike and normally use car for transport, Driver always drive car but hardly rides a bikes even kapchai....

Riding a superbike really need a skills even to reverse or lift the bikes from ground

The GTR think that he is having turbine engine under his hood ah?:stupid: :stupid: :stupid: How the hell a car can catch up with a super bike?? Me and my friend are having fun with his Yamaha last time,he gave me 2 lamp post head starts, and when I haven't reached 4th post, he just zoom passed me like I am standing still!!!

Hello friends. Long time no post.

Anyway, the other day i was on the way home, near Jalan Semantan, driving well below the speed limit when a Mini Cooper S appeared in my rear view mirror.

This Mini Cooper S is red and shiny in color. I'm sure if i was a girl, i would have fallen in love with this car. But being a red blooded male, i was driving my GT-R that night.

Seeing that the lights in my rear view mirror were blinding my sensitive eyes, i dropped gear from fifth to third to outrun this car before i went blind.

Weaving through the traffic to protect my valueable eyesight, the Mini had the advantage and overtook me in the dense traffic. Being the rational and level headed driver i am, i let him pass.

And then he started braking and waited for me up ahead.

Truly, it was absolute coincidence that his brake lights were blinding me too, so i chased him down to overtake him before he did permanent damage to my eyes... and he turned and stopped at the Intan traffic light. He was smiling and gave a thumbs up and i returned the gesture.

But now he was heading to hartamas on the Intan highway. That meant he was in GT-R territory.

Bye bye red, shiny Mini Cooper S.

In dense traffic, even a kapchai will pass you

 

[z34]

even pedestrian will pass you. especially in subang.

 

[NISMO S-TUNE]

He must had installed HID at the front and rear in order to blind you that bad....Won't be surprised at all, caused a stock kancil outrun me last time during peak hours as well...

 

[eyong]

Is it the HID, and brake-light OR ego ... :hmmmm::rolleyes:

 

[farizio]

traffic was dense but not crawling, kena cilok cilok la, Mini's are good at that

no it was the lights, I SWEAR!
