Bukit Tinggi Hill Climb Challenge :: 9 - 11 October 2009

[syong888]

a lot of cars had to watch out on the humps (by road to the hill resort), the Hill challenge road was generally ok.

Agree and this message also being pre-informed by the organzier to drive extra carefull.

The Ferrari insident happened at the alternate road going up to the resort ( In fact, the Ferrari was on the way down from the Hill Resort )

Feel sorry for the said onwer...

Will we be seeing a white Touge Spec S17 with 500bhp and 500lb/ft monster being featured for next year's hill climb? Now that will be a real sight.
=)


Hey Adian, i wasn't there but watching the videos of the GT3 is that a Cup car or a road going GT3?

I'm so darn envious of u guys.

 

[adian]

It was a road-going GT3 with competition history (MSS) and running Cup rear wing and front spoiler, the half-cage, and some very sorted suspension. Lovely!!

 

[BabyGodzillaGTi-R]

996 911GT3 RS with blue "RS stickers"? or a normal GT3 originally? Right guess? Wow when did u get a 911. Awsome.... I'm drooling...

Was like shocked with the big ah beng wing (deep down just being sour grape cos it looks awsome), never recalled that wing on a road car. Plus it was just blowing everything in sight. The pace of the car was so fast that u probably need a Radical or an Ariel Atom to give u a run for its money?

Sorted suspension as in a specially made PASM just for the 996? lol....
Would have thought Sepang setup would be way too crashy for the hill climb.

Btw i still cant find the results and timing on ZTH.
So who were the fast guys or fast cars?

 

[koolspyda]

could be the organiser wanting to protect the sanctity of the hill (bukit tinggi road)??

you never know, now there are already jibes "we are faster than that!" on some forums.
3/4 of the cars probably is capable (or more) to minus 1 min off their times. For that reason, me thinks should leave it as that.

more importantly event had loads of fun. even if it was just a spirited drive i guess for for some.

 

[blue.taxi]

since it is not a race... so no time will be issue? I think lah.

U sure it is not a 911 w/ GT3 body kit??? run... far far before kena flame!! hehe..... btw, how we diff from the video it is a 911 or GT3?

Do hope next time they hv to for the low budget cars too.

 

[adian]

In Porsche worlds, they dont usually take a a lower spec car and try to bluff their way with fake bodykits and wheels!! hahaha not like Wira that wanna be Evos or normal WRXs wanna be STIs! hahahaa..

 

[faisal]

Adian, sure or not? Plenty C2 /C4 996 goin around with GT3 bodykits too la. And C2/C4 993 with RS bodykits. hahaha
