Touge with Tuck, Xiao Huan and Fujiwara

I'm probably too moodless and too lazy to blog, but nevertheless, I'm here to share the video where I touge'd today. It has been a while since i Touge'd and definitely it was fun to drive since the cars were of equal challenge. I know the video taking was poor as it was probably my first time using my Nokia N78 as a chase cam. But nevertheless, I learnt some valuable lessons, which is to put the camera more towards the center! LOL. Anyways, heres the video, just ignore the long traffic pileup at the back of the video

Touge with Tougeking on a blind night

Well, I was bored and so was TK. Since he messaged he was bored, I suggested touge! Well I'm sure he is bored because his friends aren't around to touge anyways, so why not suggest it? And this is the final touge I will do before my final examinations on November 18th! God, I hate examinations. I did not go all out on the touge, because I can't see anything, nor I want to risk myself being killed by my parents or lose my form of transportation to go to my college back again in KL. I dread riding the bus, the train and taxi altogether! Well, it was a good day to hone my skills. I used to touge more often with a buddy up Ulu Yam, but he was back in hometown, in Sandakan. Now that he is back, I intend to touge more often to polish my skills. Well, I had a great run and I thank Jeremy for coming. His car is fast and no doubt left lots of gap. I am certain my old Lancer GLXi could perform as good as his 1.8 Satria. Too bad I don't have it anymore. I'm forced to drive in a slow car, until I have money for a better one! Thanks for TK and Jeremy for taking out my boredom.

Touge part 2 - Cameron fun with TK, Steven and Jeya

Not being a touge for very long time could rust yourself from your driving skills. In order to maintain myself where I was last at. I decided to arrange myself some touge time with TK. I told him on that specific evening, to gather as much friends as possible, so we can head up to do some training.

Did I choose the wrong day? Well, YES and NO. The best part is that I was touge-ing in pitch black. I had such experience back then while in Australia, while going through the dense forest in Arthur's Seat without proper lighting. The only sad part is that I cant drop shift as fast as manual cars going uphill. Being the lead car, it is pretty stressful. The glaring headlights at the back was really pushing me to the limit. I was hesitating heavily, as I was unable to gauge myself on the road I was doing. Obviously, I had to avoid going inside the ditch and getting a hell of a scolding from my parents.

On the side note, I really had fun. Its good to know lots of talented people attempting the great Cameron Highlands. It was good to know new people, like Jeya, Steven, Steven's girlfriend (Sim Yuen) and Leena. I hope I get to have more fun time soon.

Cameron Touge with TK (KE70), Fuji (KE70) and Steven (Gen2)

I have been deprived of 2 months of touge-ing. This is largely due to the fact that people couldn't make time or actually spend a little more money pumping petrol in their car for uphill and downhill fun. Now that petrol price has fallen about 25 cents. I guess its now even worth it to take the car to the limit again. I have not set foot on any touge expedition. Well without any further delay, I guess showing a video of our touge expedition says it all. (Sorry no recording on my side, as I lost my memory card and its rare to find RS-MMC cards nowdays). Have fun with the video. Thanks to TK, Fuji and Steven for the fun time.

Uphill and Downhill with Tougeking in Cameron Highlands

I was suppose to sit in TK's car today and test out his 11k rpm car, but unfortunately there was no back seat and there was Han as a passenger, so I decided to let go of this chance and hope for a sit the next time. So, cut the crap, here's the video, enjoy!

Uphill



TK's car was definitely fast and with him trailing my car, I was tensed up and was burning up pretty fast. Though I believe, I made a little bit of progress and corrected mistakes I did in the last touge with him. I always get overtaken at the 4:30 minutes, LOL, but I guess thats cause my car is plainly overpowered. Time to get a better car (If I can).

Downhill



Going downhill was pretty stressed too. This was my second time driving downhill. (My first time was exactly 1 year ago with my friend Ronny, but I started from foothill to Kampung Rajah) I was still pretty scared and unsure of the touge route, moreso of the A-pillar blocking my view. But overall, I was pretty happy with the result. I guess I'm getting used to the road soon enough :D Hope to touge again sometime.
