Saturday? I may be wrong...

Well, you can arrange with Thomas. I think some kind of arrangement can be
made. You can get others to join you too.

Far? Yes. But you get lots of satisfaction. High speed track as well as
technical in the infield. Plug in that lightened 2 or 3 shoe clutch with a
harder spring nad snap on the 21/27 and watch that NTC3 go... The people
there are not like those you find at Titiwangsa. There's actually no
chance of you crashing into a wall or into a curb. The only thing that you
can do is crash into other people or other people crashing into you. But
that's given. It's a real nice track. You should give it a try.

wow to use 21/27 means that the track is huge and has many tech. turns.
Also to use that I need to buy more spurs and more pinions. 6 teeth split
is alot!.

Well, at least there is an opportunity for you to stretch the car's legs
(or shafts for that matter) and be Mark Pavidis once in your life by
trying out the gears Evil

But seriously, the stock 22/26 would also be fine on that track. The track
is not that long compared to Seremban 2 where you probably need 21/27 gear
combo.

pokemon, are you joining the GS race?

Yes, indeed I would expect that a lot of GS cars will be at Titiwangsa
this Sunday preparing for race next week. More people means the tendency
to clash will be higher...

Yes, you are right about Andalas. It can get very hot noon time. Just go
there early morning 8 or 9 am. Be done at 11 to 12. I think if you go in a
group, you can ask someone to bring a canopy / tent and share it out. I
think you can get also cheaply.

Toilets? I thought they are situated at the Dewan... Not sure because I
have not taken a leak when I'm there. Sweat too much I guess...

Concrete curb? Yes, coming out of a slow corner. Sounds huge but it's like
2 to 3 inches high. Worst that can happen is you rub your left knuckle or
your exhaust pipe stinger. That about it actually. Once you get used to
it, it's a pleasure to drive there.

Remember to ease your throttle at long straight else you may have broken
crank shaft very soon. I'm one off the victim Dead I like this track but
it does toll your car dearly.

spawny,
This saturday Andalas or Titiwangsa???

Patrick, you broke your crankshaft while playing at Andalas? What gearing
did you use? If you gear it properly, it should be OK. Else, you engine
will be screaming halfway down the straight.
