PAINT!

Yeah..

Crap picture again and again..

Hahahaha..

Wetsand, polish and wax comes next..

A FUCKING BUMP!!!

I`m not sure if this will arouse anger..

Or maybe will offend some people..

But i can assure you, that`s not the intention..

It`s purely from my POV and i believe some of my friends think alike..

Drifting in Malaysia has gone waaaaay back..

Through ups and downs..

Up till now, we can see drifting has evolved to a new level..

Where a lot of drift comps are happening nowadays compared to last time..

Formula D, Goodyear Events, FxOpen 1Drift, AFamosa Drift Challenge etc etc..

Which is good..

BUT..

Despite all that, places to actually enjoy drifting is very limited..

We do not have sufficient track..

Sepang??? forget abt it..

Mostly the event is being held at huge empty space..

With cones and stuff..

Or a go-kart track..

For a privateer to enter a drift comp is bloody expensive..

Nowadays most events require FIA stuffs..

Rollcage, harness, and all that jazz..

And usually, privateers play with a road legal car..

So where the hell do these privateers go to let off their steam??

Hmmm..

Oh we have weekly/yearly free run events..

Cool..

BUT#2..

Hmm...

How to put it..

OK, lemme make an example..

My car = 60k + 30k +- for all the shit i`ve done to it from the beginning up till now..

That`s roughly 100k alone in ONE road legal driftable car..

Which is a fuckloads of money for an average person..

Free run entry fees = RM50 (for most cases)

Track condition = Like shit. Fucking moon surface..

I can accept that crashing in drifting is common..

But what if i am drifting..

Fucking sidelong in 3rd..

Then suddenly..

BOOOOMMM!!!!

I hit an uneven surface with a pothole in the middle of the track..

There goes my rear lower arm..

Oh hey i crack my subframe too..

Oh wait what is that??

Oh my aero is all in pieces..

Look Look!!!! My rad support is kinked as well..

Will i accept that??

HELL NO!!!

I made this post simply because i did some reading earlier..

One of my friend was "sarcastically flamed" by an event organizer..

Simply because he suggest to slightly alter the track layout cause the current layout consist of speeding through a fucking BUMP!!!...

And during the last session, my friend broke his axle arm going through that area..

And surprisingly the organizer told him off..

By saying that if a "drifter" is afraid of damaging his/her car, he/she should enter car shows instead..

WHAT THE FUCK!!!

Hey dude, you guys are either sponsored or using track cars..

s13 track car = RM10 + RM10k +- for modification..

Hey thats 80k shy of what i`ve spend on mine..

Are you being ignorant??? or simply retarded???

And the damage is not cause by collision, it`s caused by the FUCKING BUMP!!!

The current layout demands you to go over THE FUCKING BUMP!!!

What the fuck with this FUCKING BUMP!!!

Oh maybe the organizer should do something about it..

I dunno, maybe make the surface level???

Or maybe if the organizer want to feed his babies with the entry fees, he can change the layout like what my friend suggested???

I feel sorry for him..

He`s a student with a passion for drifting..

But if this goes on..

Where do privateers with limited budget that daily their car go??

The streets???

Maybe one will reply "you need to pay to play, boy"..

???

Pay for a fucking retarded surface???

Hell no..

I`d rather pay for a hooker, SON!!

Fin.

It`s Getting There..

Ghetto paintbooth..

It`s cheap..

Whatever..

You`re Doin It WRONG..

Autobots..

TranSform!!!

Ugh..

The End is Near....?

Hey..

So i kinda need to do tubs right (i`ve explained this awhile back)..

And it happened..

I did a mistake by cutting the original wheel tub at home when my car was on stands..

At that point i thought my friend could rent me his mig..

But it turns out that he`s using 3 phase!!!

SHIT!!!

My mistake..

Anyway i`ve came to a point that i want to get this car done ASAP..

Since there`s an event in Perlis coming up this August..

And a good friend of mine want to use my car for his wedding ceremony..

So yeah..

Fuck it and drive WITHOUT the wheel tubs in place..

Like this..

I`ve read that a few cars (same chassis) drove without the wheel tub and live..

But i kinda cut the strut tower as well..

So i added some "triangulation" or whatever you wanna call it for a lil peace of mind....

And it lived!!!!

Hahahaha..

This was my first experience doing such things like this EVER..

Same goes with my welder..

It turns out goooooooooooood..

I would like to thank my welder for being such an awesome friend..

After the tubs is done..

I`ve got a shitload of clearance...

No rubbing at all..

Which makes me wanna go a liiiiiiiiiitle bit lower..

Maybe like 10mm..

We`ll see..

So now the car is at the paintshop..

Color is still undecided..

Hopefully will be completed by end of next week..

Hmmm...

Updates..

Remember the stuff that i sent a month ago to get some fabrication done (super angle and adjustable rucas)??

Well it`s not happening (long story)..

So i had to get another set of knuckles, s14 flca and ruca..

And the car is now at my welders place getting the tubs done..

Paint is coming next..

U can kinda see the driver side tub is being made..

And also for lending me the BROpexi air filter..

Hahahaha..

So i was chillin at Drifthouse today..

Watching some old D1 dvds and stuff..

Then this dude dropped by..

He went "dude i`m changing my kit, can help me fix it??"

And i went "Yeah sure BRO"..

He was trimming his D-Max front bumper which he just bought..

Yeah..

It`s that low..

It`s drivable and it looks rad..

So why the fuck people have high cars again???

Kiwis

My dad brought home some kiwis..

Tastes like a fistfull of AWESOME!!
