Yea la all roads are potentially to be dangerous especially straight road (based on statistic more accident happened on straight road compared to windy road).

yea thats because the exited the corner and floor it or was out of the corner still losing control before they crash trying to bring the car under control.

What tire u going to install?

The Klawang road is very good if your car is:

-small,so that you will easily stay in your line & lane.
-Torque,since the corner are tight & sometime going uphill with numerous terrain.
-Suspension setup,& drivetrain since from my experiences,a kancil with 850-1000cc engine would easily outrun any big car with rear wheel drive that have too many horses.

I can say that because I live in somewhere near Klawang(very near) & I use the road almost everyday from morning to midnight,be it on big bike,my trusty kapchai,ATV or the car(I still feel that my saga 1.3 is the best for the road compared to my Z33,largely because of small tight turn & the second best is kancil 660cc,especially downhill part.)

I think the record for the saga I have done 2 years before is around 12-13 minute from the T junction all the way to my house at batu 23.

I never done anything like that after last aggresive 2am run since I have hitted a group of wildboars when trying to break my own record.Luckily the wildboar didnt KO in front of the road since it was quite big & thanks to god me & my bro didnt ride a bike at that time.

For bike,I still think a small 2 stroke 125cc-150cc sportbike & kapchai was the best to ride on klawang.My old,heavy ZXR is not so nimble to take the tight corner but I guess it really depend on rider...I not a very good rider when it come to corner,only confident for high speed straight line riding hahaha :D

wah.......attack of the ninja wild boar! Well i would really love to try k.klawang soon. Hopefully can get my car back up and healthy again soon for the trip

xbalance2002,
I plan to install Federal 595 Evo but still not install it yet as the tire shop try to bullshit me. Previously she told me that the price is RM285 for 205/50/16 with installation per tire but when I went to the shop on last Saturday to get the tires, she didn't admit that she had promised me that price and said the price is rm320. I lost my faith on that shop and still finding a shop with reasonable price for that tire. Anybody got any experience on that tire? Is it good? Price range? Kedai papan in Klang quote me rm305 for Yokohama s-drive. Which one is better? Aaayyyaa need to postpone my touge trip again

break in easy job... option 1 is put on a dyno machine and let it run or option 2 follow us go for touge run or option 3 driving down to JB and come back the engine is fully break in

 

[PocketRocket]

option 4 - jack up the car's butt, front tires put stoppers and jalan....
