ParticipantJust to go there for look see look see or joining my-kart series?
If coming for my-kart series, then you need the fastest way to get there as you will be required to be there early! But being a saturday, traffic is no problem.
visit http://www.citykarting.com for direction.
or you can check the location and direction from google earth.
a. LRT
– which LRT to use? (Star or Putra)
-which station to which station?
-after the station, use which bus to get to the track?
-the frequency of the bus service?
-the fares
-roughly the duration of journey from Puduraya to track (hours)Get down to Masjid Jamek station, take Putra LRT to the Kelana Jaya station. Get a taxi from there to Shah Alam stadium. (it might be difficult to get a taxi to Shah Alam)
Duration?
A long consuming timeb.Taxi
-which taxi?
-the frequency of the taxi service? (Is it easy to get a taxi at the track?)
-the fares
-roughly the duration of journey from Puduraya to track (hours)Fast but could be a little costly. Expect around RM25/- from Puduraya.
c.Public Bus
-which bus (the bus number)
-the frequency of the bus service? (How long does it take for the next bus to come both at Puduraya and at the track?)
-the fares?
-roughly the duration of journey from Puduraya to track (hours)Huh? No idea at all.
d.Personal Transport
-Is Federal Highway best way to get to the track?
-What are the toll fees at Subang toll and other tolls I am encounter?The best way to get there. Depending on which way you are coming from (eg. KL town, Damansara or straight from Taiping)
If coming from KL, the federal highway is clear on saturday early morning. The toll at Batu Tiga is RM1.10/-. After paying the toll, keep to the left and go up the ramp to the batu tiga / CSR flyover. Turn right at the ramp toward TTDI Jaya, Bkt Jelutong, Monterrez direction. After the lights after the flyover, turn left at the next lights towards MAKRO + stadium and go up the slight gradient after Makro and make a U-turn at the roundabout halfway up the hill and turn left 50m after the U-turn and go downhill and VOILA! you are there.

Memberbest bet alvin is to stay overnight somewhere in shah alam, subang jaya or pj. then get a taxi in the morning or if you are lucky enough, you can hitch a ride with somebody. if you are coming to race, then be there at 7:30am.

ParticipantThe best to get there is by taking taxi or get someone to pick you up to the track. Public transportation in KL are a bit mess, seriously.

[/quote]Don’t think it is easy to catch a taxi (not many) from that station early sat morning.
Easier to catch a taxi at Subang station but need to work out a bargain first before boarding.

[/quote]The result from this saturday’s race and endurance 3 on 20 May will be one of the factor to determine the urgency. 😀

ParticipantGuys,
pardon me cos it’s late…130am and I am downunder but
WHERE THE HELL IS THE GUY WHO ASKED THIS QUESTION?
Alvin I must tell you is a graduate from Razman’s ipoh karting clinic, aspires to be a racing driver and is finally making his move to join our races…..we knew his plan 3 years back – almost. ( i recall inviting him once for a personal coaching but he no take the offer )
I think if he gets his butt to any of the LRT or Kommuter station – someone will pick him up. Some kind soul extended the courtesy to Raphael, the French guy…am sure u all remember.
I just hope Alvin shows! for his own sake.

ParticipantThanks, guys. I am considering whether I can make it to the track so that I can race to gain some race experience. There are only a few things I can do at Taiping and Penang, that is waiting for the government to organize go-kart courses. It is very difficult for me to go all the way from Taiping to Klang Valley, a place I am totally not familar with but it is not that impossible. If everything fall in accordingly, I may get to come to race.
Okays, you all have clarified on how to get there and I can only arrive at the track only on taxi or personal transport, but not LRT and bus. But, what about going back to Puduraya? Is it difficult to get a taxi? How long should I wait for a taxi? I am affaid that I may be “struck” at there.
Anyway, if I do come, I will be happy to race as this chance does not come frequently to me. Hopefully, I can learn some racing skills from your all. Thanks.

That would be me, but he promised to introduce French gals which never materialised 🙁
hehehe
Alvin, stop thinking too much, just do it! swoosh!!!! If you think too much on track, you will still be checking your rear view mirrors when everyone pass the chequered flag!

[/quote]maybe this time with Taiping girls got better chance meh…? 😀

[/quote]As long as you get your butt to the track this saturday, there are 1001 ways to get back to Puduraya.
No worries!5 May 2006 at 5:53 am #2803alvinkhorfire
ParticipantThanks for the praise, Jules. Actually, I am not that good. What Raja Razman taught me are just basic things like ABC, flags and safety equipment. After all, it is just a basic go-kart course organized by Perak government. The only racing experience I have is just Pan Global race last year at Batu Kawan, Penang. My impatient and lack of racing skill costs me the chance to qualify for the grand final as I just finished 11 out of 12 in the qualifier final. Anyway, it is very difficult for me to get to Shah Alam track and most probably, I can only make it at next month’s race. But if I do make it, I intend to make most of it and learns something from you all. Once again, thanks for all your help.
