Refer to the 2005 standings (4 rounds).

Agenda for the day is to have testing in the morning, and karts tuning thereafter with the race starting at around 12pm. Each team will need to ensure that the karts are ballotted and setup properly before the race which will be later in the day. So please allocate full day.

0900 - 1000: team registration, weighing in & ballotting
1000 - 1030: Team & Driver Briefings
1030 - 1200: kart preparation
1230 - 1430: my-KART Mega Enduro Race
1500 - 1600: Refreshments and prize giving

Each team will need to do the following:[list=1]
[*]form a team
[*]nominate team principal and assistant principal (team principals should only enter the same teams as prior enduros)
[*]the team principals are both not allowed to change teams – we should avoid a proliferation of teams in the enduro championship
[*]the team will score points only if one or both of the principals are participating
[*]the team principals shall select the drivers (4 drivers total including principals)
[*]driver weights: male, an average of 70kgs per driver and female, an average of 60kgs per driver (eg. if team has 4 male drivers, total minimum weight must be 70×4 = 280kgs… if team has 3 male and 1 female, then minimum weight must be 70×3 + 60 = 270kgs)
[/list]

Further details of preferred formats are being worked out together with the associated rules. Please tune in this website regularly for updates.

More details of the rules are in the attachment and at the following links:

      Final list to be confirmed after CNY.

      Looks like a 65kg driver is good enough for the team.

      my feeling is that the minimum weight may need to be increased to 280kg given the average driver weights as of now is 70.5kg. Ahaks!! we are moving in the wrong direction diet wise!

        Aha! suddenly the market price for heavyweight karters above 75kg has gone up. I can smell very good business coming up.

      Wow!…about 4 or 5 teams were below 270 kg in the previous my-kart enduro. This will put pressure on these teams to terminate agreements with their lighter drivers and sign up new 70 kg drivers.

      Hi there handsome! (to club 70 and above)….hehehe..

      John – the weight limit has gone up to 70kg average per male driver and 60kg average per female driver. Also, I would disallow Mardiah racing in your team given that she is considered a member of KartQuest. KartQuest can race as a team, but not score championship points or positions.

  11. Hi Fazz,
    i just got back

    Hi Fazz,

    i just got back from the the practice at Sepang. Razman was asking if we were going to ballot early so that we can use Thursday and Friday to set up the karts (for those that are available). For Razman, this gives his mechanics more time than rushing to fix any problems on the day of the race itself. I thought this would be a good idea. Possibly to ballot the karts over a Teh Tarik session on Wednesday. For those that are not available, they can always appoint someone that is going (doesn’t have to be from the same team). Anyway, Razman will sms Ashraff the list of karts who will in turn forward it to you.

            It is getting very tough just to form a team with the 280kg rule!

            75kg above drivers are getting a very high demand here. Those below 70kg, there is always the goreng pisang, nasi lomak (with Ed’s secret recipe), nasi kandar (taken after midnite), pizza,KFC, burger king to beef up your weight over the next 1 week. So start tucking!

            Okay…here’s the revised weight for Team JuFFO Autosports International – Powered by WGaS

            The previous weights were a tad bit optimistic, we’ve re-weight ourselves with full racing gear and got these figures.

            Azman Abas (TP) ~ 64kg
            Amin Ashaari (ATP) ~ 87kg
            Bernard Hoe ~ 65kg
            Azlan Khalid ~ 65kg

            Total Team Weight: 281kg

            Looks like we’re just about there. So please confirm us in the enduro 😀

            yes – racing suits & open face helmets are provided at Sepang. The rest is bring your own. I’d suggest you bring your own helmet (full face is better) rather than sharing.

            Right!…you lose concentration when you get burned a nd anything (stones, debris, insects..) that fly towards you as you follow another kart. I would encourage all to adhere to the philosophy that “Safety is No. 1” and there is no price for it. Get that suit on race day from the operator on race day or at least wear long pants and long sleeve T – shirt.

      I believe there are drivers looking to drive for some teams.

      Siang Wei is one of them (60kg)?

  13. Fazz,
    You have not responded

    Fazz,

    You have not responded to the early balloting as per my previous posting. When I tested at Sepang on Sunday, some of the karts had very bad brakes. It makes sense to give Razman’s mechanics time to fix whatever problems need to be fixed as well as time to set up the kart. If we ballot early we can set up on Thursday and Friday. Those that can’t make it can always set up on the day of the race.

    BTW Confirmed weights of Gila Racing drivers.

    Brian 75kg
    Devan 82kg
    Jin 73 kg
    Ashraff 75 kg

      Brian – apologies here. Do we need all the teams to go to Sepang before hand and ballot & test the karts? I fear that not all teams will be able to do this. For those that do, they will have an advantage over the rest. Why can’t KartQuest test all the karts and sort out any problems? Your quick views here.

        Bad brakes? I hope what we’re paying for its worth it this time. The mechanics must do the job this time by not repeating the last event fiasco which involve some other karters…

        See….heavier drivers are getting very very popular with the min 280 kg weight ruling. Hopefully this this will not be misinterpreted as an encouragement to increase or retain that “unnecessary ballast”.

        Fazz, if you like, I will bring along my missus’s scale (while she is still sleeping) just in case the other one breaks down or gone missing for any reason…cos this minimum weight thing could get quite serious on that day ….LOL!

      The race was won by Azmee’s PC Net Com team. With a total 89 laps. Runner up was Naza’s Team Aliens (88 laps) followed by John’s Fast n Furious (87 laps).

      Tail Happy Racing was fourth on 86 laps with team JuFFO Motorsport and Gila Racing both on 85 laps and in seventh Team Novice on 82 laps. All teams finished the race in one of the smoothest run enduro event.

      Well done to everybody for a good race, although the turn out was significantly lower than expected – perhaps 280kg minimum weight was much more difficult to meet that initially expected. Anyway, we talked a bit more after the race and certainly we need to rethink some of the rules with a view to improve future Mega Enduros.

      Kudos to Raja Razman & KartQuest for the significant improvement in operations. The practice session went with minimal drama and the race had to be started 15 minutes earlier (1145hrs) due to the early resolution of all the technical issues.

  15. It was certainly a “quiet
    It was certainly a “quiet race”. Things were unusually smooth….! First, there were only 9 teams including a team with Raja Razman driving solo for the entire race (not sure as to why he did that) and another unnamed team (they had a kid driver).

    Definitely, a much better service by kartquest led by Raja Razman. I have the feeling that Fazz or someone had succeeded in giving constructive “feedback” to kartquest about previous shortcomings perhaps. Thanks to whoever it was.

    I wonder what are the other teams view on Razman having friendly ‘dogfights’ (he is not on the points btw) during the course of the race. In my case, my duel with him only exposed my weaknesses which I will work on it, thank you!. However, doing that for 3 to 4 laps did slow me down and allowed a competing driver to significantly close the gap and sneaked pass.

      Very nice endurance race indeed. It is just unfortunate that our Team Novice’s kart chain came off just after 10 laps and we easily lost more than 5 laps for the misfortune as we have to get back to pits for re-tensioning of the chain after getting it temporary fixed on the track.

      The response by the crew is definitely very much much better than the previous rounds. We even have an emergency crew on stanby near turn 3,5 & 8 area for any breakdown.

      I got no problem with having Razman around during my turn but it does show expose the difference in skill between a sifu & amateur. He was just playing around and when I thought I could just catch him and overtake him, he disappeared into the horizon.

      1. Great all went well!
        Razman

        Great all went well!

        Razman playing with you guys?……well, I can only guess he is preparing his experience for the Yamaha championship! ( not necessary as driver but team manager or even client support )

        Time will tell…..
