BMW Club & Friends Vehicle Dynamics Course with Ignition.my
January 12th 2013 saw a total of 15 cars from the BMW Club Malaysia together with a couple of their friends in other cars participate in the Ignition.my course for “Introduction to Vehicle Dynamics & Limit Handling” at Shah Alam Stadium Carpark. It was a mix of all types of cars, and with a lady driver as well (who did very well indeed!).
The weather played its part thankfully, with overcast skies for most of the day up till about past lunchtime. Speaking of which, the 4 barrels of KFC fried chicken went down pretty quick when you have 15 ravishing drivers pumped with adrenalin!
The course introduced the participants to
- Skid Control at 70 km/h
- Braking Avoidance at 70 km/h
- Lane change at 80 km/h
- Staggered Gate Slalom at 80 km/h
And we finished the day with a little Autocross competition … Read More »
Pics from Slide School 3-2012
A total of 7 cars turned up to play at our intermediate Slide School held on 14 July at Shah Alam Stadium car park. Even though they were basic S-courses and R-courses, everyone had a great time shreading rubber and improving their slide skills!
That is why Slide School exists: not everyone wants to be a drifter, but there are many that do want to learn and practice how to successfully go hang it sideways and hold a slide all the way around a turn.

Slide School Intermediate – 14 July 2012
It’s time to ditch the Beginner donuts, and head straight to S-course, R-course, and Reverse R-course drift layouts!
No more donuts, seriously. We want to PLAY, so come out and join the fun! We’ll be creating 4 different courses, you fellas (and dolls) line up, and run through it. And we’ll do it like this all day long.
I guess we’re not all hardcore drifters and can’t make it to Djan’s SpeedCity Saturday Night Drift, so here’s the perfect place to play or practice your skills.
How does it work? Simple: a nice, big, open area; experienced instructors (errr, that’s me and Faisal); some basic guidelines and courses; and the recommendation to drive it like you stole it!
DETAILS:
14 July 2012, 930am till we’re all tired (usually by mid-afternoon);
RM 200 per driver for a maximum of about 10-12 participants;
Venue is Shah Alam Stadium … Read More »

Ok, seriously: when we were at Proton R3, once in awhile (like a few times a week!) we’d take some cars to the test track after hours when it’s not being used, and just drive like idiots: 100kmh initiations and spins, Scandinavian flicks and … Read More »
