MAT Rempit usually down themselves with tuak (fermented coconut or nipah sap) mixed with terrapin blood before taking part in a race.
Kosmo! said this was the secret behind their bravery in performing death defying stunts on motorcycles.
The terrapin blood is said to enhance the effects of the alcohol while the drink functions like a sort of “viagra” to overcome fear.
A Mat Rempit, who did not want to be named, told Kosmo! that the concoction gave them a “different feeling of being high”.
“Even if there is a narrow road, it will appear very wide to us,” he added.
He also told the daily that there are a few places in Pasir Mas and Jeli in Kelantan that processed the drink secretly for Mat Rempit. The brew is sold at RM5 per packet or by weight.
A police officer told Kosmo! that most Mat Rempit confessed they had drunk the special tuak and that it was a compulsory drink before racing. "
My take: Damn! Now we have 'high' issues! WTF???
