Bukit Putus Hillclimb post mortem

its been a week now after the awesome event. But i’m just too busy at panasonic for the past few days. Intended to stay late though to make up extra money for something very nice 🙂

so tonight i collect all the strength to write up something to updates on the hillclimb runs. its just too much fun, i am selfish if i were to keep it for myself 🙂

its was AWESOMEEEEE peeps! man..racing on open road is very nice indeed. basically suspensions of your bike need to be softer from track setup to absorb bumps ferom normal road condition better. Other than that you’re good to go.

It was a car/bike event. So the car is dominating. Plenty of nice machines shows up during the day, and this one caught my intention. here’s an eye candy

Toyota Ae86...hunted by many drifters. looks like a normal drift setup car right? teettt!wrong..whats up with the cut up hood?did you notice that?

An AE86 car but with trick stuff inside. Clue, whats a famous red cylinder headed engine?

may this this next pic helps you out

can you figure it out?

its a honda powerplant! huyohh..how come an honda engine be fitted in a Toyota?

thats not all…it aint the regular vtec we see everyday. it was taken from an S2000! wahlauwehh…i asked the owner then “why dontcha use the usual 4 throttle levin engine?” …he answered ” i want a reliable engine for training. a levin need modification to extract power from it, where as with this engine, it juices out 220HP in stock form”..mak aih..byk gile duit kau bole la kut..dasat-dasat.

okayyy..cars stuff done, lets get to our runs. At first it sounded like many riders are coming, but at the event only me and amir pomen came. Then thankfully bunch of guys with KSRs came also to join the fun. else, it would be only 2 bikes.

We’re being launched one by one by the organizer, and it takes me about 4-5 runs up there to familiarize with the road.

At the morning session it was damp. It rains heavily that morning

rains..i like itt..buat when it comes to riding in it...:(

have i told you how i hate riding in the rain? i have? well..i HATE IT!..haha…so i take it easy in the morning. But when the sun shines and the road dries out..tanduk pun klua laa…hahaha..heres amir’s run up the hill. i’m on a faster bike so i can tailgate him easy. we manage to get permission to climb up duet so i can record him. here’s how it looked like

near the finish area he let me passed him out to be able to record me pulak…but his cam’s battery dried out and the cam was off..caistt 😦

haaaha..no worries though..i had fun! and here’s my last run. Should be about my 7th run that day and i feel comfortable with te route this time around. i ride as hard as i could within my safe pace. Super fun i tell ya!

my last post i did mentioned it may be quite the same as isle of manTT. well..of course i’m slower, i’m on a 150cc machine..i need 850cc more…anyone want to lend me their superbikes? i promise i’ll treat it good 🙂 …hahah
