28 May~4 June 2016: Bintulu-Miri-Brunei Trip

Had a holiday trip with my in law family members and we travel in 2 cars, 1 of which is my own Charmant, although it was intended to be a relaxing family trip, but I just can’t help but to squeeze in some drift action in between to quench my thirst for some sideways action, haha!

Anyhow, I’ll let the pictures talk!

28 May’16: Extended ebrake handle b*tch!! Things about to get real serious!

1 Jun’16: Bintulu Drift Boleh!

After me and my in law family had our funs at Bintulu, we departed to Miri, and while we’re 2/3 on the trip, my Charmant decided to break down…again just like the very old times, I’ve called up my good friend Johnny Yong whom is now working on his own business (Ceramic Pro) in Miri, he came for the rescue without hesitation, his deep knowledge and experience in 4age have saved me numerous times in the past, and that day was no exception, in the end I managed to drive my Charmant safely to Miri in one piece, all thanks to him. Good to be catching up with you again old friend!

3 Jun’16: Long time friend, Johnny Yong!

After some long needed catching up with Johnny, I’ve made a visit to the infamous Go-Kart track of Miri the very next morning, I’ve been wanting to visit this track for such a looong time and I’m glad I’ve achieved half of my dream, if you ask why only half? …. well… it’s the fact that the gates are bloody LOCKED god damnit! I was soooo tempted to break open the gate and just let my Charmant go loose in that beautiful little track, definitely would be very fun in some 2nd gear actions!  Anyways, not being able to drive in it after making such a long journey from Sibu, was definitely my BIGGEST disappointment in this trip!

12 February 2016: New Wheels…Finally!

Been eyeing at this local wheel maker from Malaysia for quite some time and finally made the decision to pamper myself and my Charmant right before CNY, got this Atara Racing Cengkih 14″x8jj at less than RM1,500 delivered to my very door step, you can’t ask for any cheaper than that!

Finally some proper wheels on my Charmant!

The wheels didn’t fit that perfect though, as I faced some issues with clearance, but that was temporarily resolved with a set of front spacers installed, looks kinda weird but hey, as long as it functions fine, I’m all cool!

23 January 2016: Bintulu Gymkhana/Drift Scene Blooming

The momentum from 2015 doesn’t stop and with my persistent enthusiasm, me and my new friends jump started 2016 with a bang in Bintulu, we’ve established a small convoy from Sibu to Bintulu and had an awesome 2 days Gymkhana and Drift session with the locals, so much fun, so much heat and so much satisfaction in burning rubbers via sideways style!

At this point of time, majority of us from Sibu have started to realize just how much better the scene and venue here in Bintulu in terms of drift, not only does the surface works way easier to our tyres, but the runoff zones are all flat grass, which is way safer compared to Sibu, there’s no problem here going 2nd or 3rd gear drifts, flat out!  More exciting moments to come…
