THE NOTORIOUS EVO 9 BLAZING THE 400 METER STRETCH

Ahmad Firdaus won the second round of the 2009 Sepang Drag Battle recently. The 25-year-old knew what he needed to win after finishing in second place in the first round of the Drag Battle.

“Power was sufficient but to balance things out so the car will get off the line easier we needed to lighten the car so we replaced the doors and some of the panels with fiber ones,” explained Firdaus about the modification done on the Mitsubishi EVO that he drove in the competition.

“I’m really happy with the car now and the result shows, hopefully it will last me the whole season but we’ll see what happens in the next round,” exclaimed Firdaus after beating 11 other competitors in class A.

More than 3000 spectators came that night to watch 137 competitors racing with each other in a 400m dash in 7 classes from the everything-go class A to the limited modification Campro powered cars in Class G.

There are five rounds of the Sepang Drag Battle scheduled for this year and the third round is blasting off on July 18 2009.

Tickets are sold at RM50 for Pit area while the grandstand seats are going at RM10.

Parking for cars is RM5 for cars and RM2 for bikes.

CHINA HYBRID SPORTS CAR - A COMBO OF F430, R8, GTR AND ENZO IN ONE PACKAGE

Automotive Industry in China is one of the biggest in the world. We can see all sort of car coming from them. From crappy weird car to highly competitive car. Few of the success which came into Malaysian market include the Chery Eastar which makes it possible for medium income family to have a spacious and comfortable SUV.

But sometimes, they are well known for their copycat identity. From clothing lines to the car production lines. If we search through the internet, we can see few china car that looks a lot simillar to other manufacturer’s model.And sometimes, they brought out this kind of car, a mixture of few world famous supercar.

tong-jian-s11-interior

The car featured here is a the Tong Jian S11 that was revealed at the Shanghai Motor Show. If you look at the back of the car. You can see clearly the design came from the Ferrari F430.And if you look from the side, you will immediately motice the simillarity between the Tong Jian S11 and the Audi R8 and somehow, the front fascia really reminds me of the Nissan GTR with a little mix of Enzo and the old Maranello.

tong-jian-s11-side

The car is said to be a hybrid sports car that presumably combines electric motors with an internal combustion engine. There is no technical info on the car and whether its going into the market or not.

tong-jian-s11-rear-bumper

Come to think of it. China automaker does know how to build car.The only thing lacking is an original design and the quality control.But if the Tong Jian S11 is available in Malaysia with a competitive price, will you buy one?

New Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 2009 2010 Reviews and Specs

Very interesting car. I wonder which is going to be faster and better to drive, this car or its direct upcoming competitor Ferrari F450. Both will be RWD of courseThis is the car Lambo should have built from the beginning. It seems like a proper supercar now. And i like it even more when i see manual gearboxes instead of all these e-gear, DKG, DSG, etc. Power comes from the 5.2-litre normally aspirated V10 engine but has been detuned to make 550hp (405kW) and not 560hp (412kW) like the LP560-4. A 6-speed manual gearbox comes standard. Don't let that minor power cut dissuade you from forming high opinions of the car though; it has shed 30kg (66 lbs) and dispatches the 0 - 100km/h sprint in 3.9 seconds.
Those 30kgs lost are matched with a 10% price cut and a limited run of 250 units worldwide. A total of eight exterior colours will have owners salivating over which one to choose. Included with those is a special white livery.
An AWD Italian bull rushing over 500 stallions from under the bonnet is no child's play at full glory. One with no AWD safety net is something only a few should attempt to play with.
