We’ll arrive on Saturday 24th Nov afternoon in Dubai and straight to the hotel in Al-Ain. The Malaysian and other Asian countries will be in the same hotel. No hotel name are given out yet.

    Sunday 25th will be the drivers, mechanics registration, etc. If you like some of the details are available at http://www.maxchallenge-rotax.com/events/2007_united-arab-emirates/united-arab-emirates.html

    yazid…oraitttt…i’ll try to be there with my camera…hopefully i’ll have my new D300 by that time…
    my mobile# +971-50-6816928…just drop me a message when you’ve arrived…
    the temperature should be a lot cooler than now…as it is now…it has gone down quite a lot compared to last month…in fact at night time it can get as low as 26*C …& it will be cooler in end Nov/Dec…
    i already checkout the race details earlier…but it looks like nothing much will happen until the last 2 days…when the qualifying & finals will take place…
    nevertheless…i’m trying to get my karting kakis here to join me & support Team Malaysia…

    BTW…where can I get the Team Shirt for Team Malaysia…i have 1 for the 2005 finals at Lanzarote…bought it at mofaz kartshop in tmn tun…dunno if i can find for this year’s shirt tho…

    You think the D300 will be available by then? Do you want to be the official Team Malaysia photographer and the official KartingAsia.com photographer? If yes let me know and I’ll make sure you get a media pass so you can go track-side for pictures… if you do that I’m sure there’ll be a shirt somewhere. :up: 🙂

    …I can vouch that Capt. Razmyn will easily exceed your expectation as an official team Malaysia / KartingAsia photographer. You took pics of speeding karts, he took pics of speeding camels. You pilot karts and he pilots B777. 😀

    hahaha…pics of speeding camels!!! LOL!!!

    mikko…thanks for the offer…really tempting…but that means i’ll have to try & get leave for the whole week…so i can’t really confirm now…& also i have limited experience in photographing kart races…
    still a newbie myself…but if quality is not expected to be of a pro level…i might want to try lorrr…what more if a free shirt & a track pass is on the offering…hehehe…but gimme some time…gotta check my leave first…
    dunno if i can get the D300 by then…looks very much unlikely…tho the shop promised me Nov for the delivery…it’ll be good if i can get it before the race else have to use my ol’faithful D50 then…

    yazid…looking forward to see you soon…

    There are 2 Hotels mentioned in the form i.e. Hotel Intercontinental and Green Mubazzarah Chalet. Looks like the Malaysian team will be booked at Green Mubazzarah Chalet.

    Hope to see you too… Fly carefully huh…. 😉

    Razmyn no need to take the entire week off, just the last 2 days would be more than enough =)… If you confirm I can bring my D200 + lenses for you to use. 🙂

    Would be great :)… I have the same two lenses… perhaps I’ll bring my Tokina 300/2.8 as well, maybe the 12-24 if you interested in trying that for pit shots? :up:
