VW Weekend Escape – Dato Sagor Circuit, Kampung Gajah

It was a weekend escape for some VW Boys last weekend at the Dato Sagor circuit located in Kampung Gajah, Perak. An effort by Corsa Events, the VW Weekend Escape track day was run on what seems to be an overgrown go-kart track, yet massively fun for all hot hatches. There was an entourage of a handful of VAG cars, namely made up of Golf GTIs and a TSI, a Polo and a Polo GTI, an EOS, a Passat, an A4 and a Q5 who made their way to Kampung Gajah on pre-event Saturday for a relaxing evening made out of drinks and barbeque. They then put up a night in seaside wooden chalets just 10minutes away from the circuit. What an Escape.
