Auto Shows



You know, since i am some kind of a petrol head, i've always dreamt of going to an autoshow event, or maybe a race,which is better...but it seems like luck has never sided me on such occasions!! everytime, and i say again, everytime that i got any type of information regarding an autoshow or something related, is AFTER the event had ended! DAMN!!! why, Mr.Anderson..WHY??

Always wanted to get up close and personal with these rare beasts, like this limited 20-unit Lambo Reventon.


Or even this rare R35 which has been converted to rear-wheel drive to enter the D1GP, it's a sight that I never wanna miss!

Frustrated? you bet..but giving up will just mean that im abandoning my newly found passion, which i do not think will be the case for now... So! i've decided to be a lil more active in the net, and the search paid off! i think..well, at the beginning of it, i think it did.. because i found the date and venue for the Goodyear International Drift Series!! Haha!! "a jackpot!!", that what was in my mind at that time..

My first auto event!! Of attending, of course.. Or is it?

Being all pumped up, all the planning had automatically started in my mind, the transport, funds, foods, and so on...

But then again, you know...Malaysian streets are filled with speed bumps... and holes.so yet again, i encountered another one.bummer.

I could say that the hole is THIS deep, where getting outta it is no easy feat. haha.


Firstly, the venue. at first i thought it was at Melaka International Trade Center, which is not a big deal coz it is accessible via public transport. but a second and detailed glance to the venue shows that it isn't! it is not MITC, its MIMC, or Melaka International Motorsport Circuit! Damnit! some might ask, "So, if its at MIMC, what's the big deal?" Exactly.What's the big deal? its inaccessible by public transport, that's why!! because i could be categorized as a frequent and loyal p.t. user, and without it i'll be totally immobilized...

the other reasons are not a big deal really, its more of a personal issue such as funding and the lack of free time at the particular date. so i could say that it was really a setback for me of not being able to go to the event. but, i believe that my time is going to come rolling to me someday, and i could say to you that when the time comes, to hell that i'm gonna let it slip through!!
so while i'm still in this particular topic, i would like to ask you guys a favor, a really simple one actually...

if you encountered or heard of any upcoming auto events in Malaysia, please do let me know...high priority are being put to events that belongs in the international level, as i really love a twist of variety in the event. but that does not mean im hating local events!!no!! by supporting locally organized events, then our local motor industry could rise to the eyes of the world!
I think that's enough of blabbering for now. Again, if there is any such events, please let me know, aite? till then, cheerio!
