hey fazz , not quite an F1 maniac yet. missed the race because of the foster’s… ahahhaha .well, i slept on the grass , its quite peaceful u know, with the V10s screaming pass u every 10 seconds.
yeah, the atmosphere is really good, u feel u are really in a big happy event,worth every cent u pay. to me,the track invasion was the best, if feels so different when u see the podium there with the flags and the anthems being played.
hey razmyn, u know something weird. since the very first jgtc in 2000, i’ve never been to 1!! its always around my exams. then in 2003, when my exam schedule was more spaced out, they cancelled the kl event cos of SARS, so disappointing. they calling it superGT this year btw.
tickets, for 4 day general admission is AUD$195. can walk around the whole park until u pengsan. grandstand range from 359 to 620 for the 1st corner grandstand. yup, the first corner stand is more expensive than the pitstraight stand (429).
i’m here to study man… saved up some money to go so parents wont bising went i go for f1 🙂 .its gonna be my last aussie gp. probably come back here in 5 years time hopefully. feel like going round the track on a normal day… wonder how different it looks.
hope u all enjoyed the photos as much i did taking them.
sunday also need to kerja ah…aiyoo….
the sound of the V10s screaming past u, approaching turn 9, downshifting from 5th down to 2nd…. the backfiring pop-pop-bang-pop-bang, floor the pedal, traction control kicks in,even more pop-bang-pop noise from the exhaust….up 3rd..4th …5th…approaching blind turn 11….
i am missing that already…..
hey yip yen,
everyone seems to be talking about the voda girls 🙂
those tyres? they are super light, before my turn, i was wondering if i could lift it up. i would say its probably about 1kg.. so yeah, u can lift it up with 2 fingers! thats just a show car, so i guess they use normal air for the tyres.been to sepang for f1 about 4 times, this is my second aus. GP. sepang has good view of the circuit, thats all. cheap tickets…..and merchandise too. sepang doesnt have much land for activities, thats y its kinda unattractive to go.
i think the engine rules arent working. BAR is retiring their cars because of the loopholes in the rules.
still got another 2-3 race to see whether the new qualifying rules are good.final update of the 4 day event. was tiring and sleeping during the race after that single cup of foster’s!! the next time u see melbourne gp photos, it will be from a grandstand.
yup…cars are practically next to u, so u definitely need to wear earplugs on raceday. but if at corners like most of my shots, no need earplugs as it isnt that loud.
the down side of being so close is u cant see the car go around corners. u only see the car for 1-2 seconds, then its out of your area of view. good thing about sepang and other purpose built tracks is that the spectators are high up, u get to see the cars taking corners, braking and accelerating.i’ve not upload some “carnival” photos yet. there is even a ferris wheel at the track compound!!
thanks simon!!
OS: when i mean screw-man, i mean the guy holding the screw/jack/airgun to screw the wheel nut.all 3 of us had a go at it. does sepang have this activity? its quite fun to play with the gun.
as for the girls…. they were there to be taken photos with 🙂
looks like alot of tissue paper on the right girls chest…ahhahamore photos uploaded today.starts from pic 88. hope the wire mesh doesnt spoil your eyes.
http://www.imagestation.com/album/pictures.html?id=2130040503&code=14820876&mode=invite&DCMP=isc-email-AlbumInvitewill report and definitely tonnes and tonnes of photos.
hope the street parade will take place too… webber piloting the fw26 in melbourne CBD perhaps?razmyn- forgot r2 was that weekend!! mmmm nvm la… sepang is a nicer place to venue anyway..just that the heat is terrible.
below rm5k…. now thats entry level racing at its best!!!
even those little nitro 1/10 r.c. racers cost rm4k for the top of the range!!!hope Formula ‘ModStone’ becomes reality!!!!
feel like having a look at it tmrw…
when i was my turn to drive… traffic was the worst, jam from the toll gate onwards. heard last year was very smooth…
C3 a little too close to the action… E stand still the best to me,among C3,K2 and E.
razmyn..come for melbourne GP la 🙂
pasir gudang? why? can race at sepang ; better track, better facilities, can hold more spectators.
i checked the website out… the red dot to show where malaysia is is wrong, its pointing at jakarta!!
and for australia, looks like they are racing at the famed Mt. panorama/bathurst… its a monster of a track.hope its called sauber BMW though…
webber is good… might see him make an impact in melb later… just watch…fazz.. whos the k2 driver with jacques helmet design?…
OS.. its 99 🙂 … 98 belum ada m’sian gp yet.
thats G stand btw.wwoow..just realized i’ve been from 99-03..except for ’00 only
its hot la, but with lots of water and sunblock, shouldnt kill u. there was one year, ’01, where south side of the circuit was raining, but north was dry, and we were at k2 hillstand, it was dry.we could see the water trails from the cars at the main straight!! best race to me,where both ferrari’s spun, pitted for intermediates, and started overtaking to finish a 1-2.
parking is a nightmare though…. unless u r lucky enough to get PA1. other than that, since hillstands(except k2) are the other end, gonna be a long queue when u come out. k2 boring la, only can see the cars accelerate.
oh man.. i miss the malaysian gp… aussie is close, but its so close that u can just hear the cars scream past, cant see anything.
hillstands are a better area to watch the race, especially the C stands and E. get to be close to the action, and also see some overtaking at the last corner. dunno about G stand though. but south grandstand is good too, provided u are facing turn 9 (hairpin) and 12-13-14 complex, good place to see how great the handling is.
