actually sepang is the formula 1 circuit in kuala lumpur about 285km from singapore. there were a couple of porsches including one GT3. 2 or 3 M3s, a honda s-2000 and an evo 8 + lots of 3s and 1 E60! (Eggz).

its 7000ringgit for a 3-4 hour session. and they allow 20 or 22 cars if i m not wrong.

hi eggs welcome back! thanks for the taxi convoy to sepang.? din catch u at the petronas station where we pumped up.? anyway alan invited me in, but i was running out of time....

i came back yesterday....hit the limiter at 250kmh despite claims of 245 for the auto-steptronic...if u r interested.? btw what was ur timing? 2.30?

250! totoseow, you're crazy man. On the NS highway, over 200km/h and I'm close to wetting my pants, there's just too many trucks and busses around.

track timing....now that was the one thing I completely forgot about! The way I was driving, heh...heh.. probably in the 3minute region. Getting the braking points right was real tough.

toto, that'll be great. I'm definitely signing up for the next one!

soc_fan...heh...heh on the last run of the day, let's see 6 cars went out, a 323ci, a 320i, a 318i, a 325i (modified) and a Hamman moded 3 series that is roughly a 330ci in performance. I was late getting into the car and started last, but managed to pass the 323ci, 320i, 318i and the Hamman mod. The should faster, but he made a mistake on turn 5 and I got him there. Most of the passes were on the long straitghts where the 3.0l can really use it's power advantage over the lighter more agile 3s
