Had tt with my dad in our year 2006 Mercedes CLK 230 Kompressor. Such a long time we did not ride in our Merc due to insufficient time to ride all my dad's car collections. This machine is too comfortable..luxury n a high speed machine. My dad changed to Eibach spring that cost rm5K..235/45/17" tires n used HID lights which is illegal on d road.
Tomorrow night..tt again with my dad..perhaps in our ferrari red BMW M3 coupe which i last rode 2 weeks ago when my dad sent me back to kptm.
Too many cars to ride n to wash...pheeew!!!

Learned a new experience again this weekend.....i joined d 4X4 offroad 4WD team to explore d Sg.Rhui, Grik jungle with my dad n family. We rode in my dad's 4X4 Mitsubishi Pajero into d 10km deep jungle. We spent a night in d tent that we brought along..enough food for 2 days n enjoyed fishing using d worm baits. I caught a lot of Tengas fish which we ate for dinner that cool n quiet night. We saw elephants' droppings on d way in..enough to scare n shrink my heart.
We locked our 4X4 wheels manually..used jungle trekker tires sized 35.0X10.5X15 to ensure that we're not stucked in d deep mud. Our 4X4 Pajero scrambled into d 3 feet deep mud terrain..climbed a few 45 degrees steep hills..crossed a 3 piece timber-made bridges n rode under a few fallen timbers whereby our Pajero's roof was dented by a huge fallen branch that was hanging right above our roof...i snapped a few photos when my dad was crossing d 3 pieces timber bridge..such a suspense n thrilling moment..no mistakes are allowed or else u end up humpty-dumpty. We also learned using d right gears 4WD gears during climbing n going down steep hills. D total number of 4X4 vehicle that went in to d jungle was 15 4WD vehicles fully equipped with winches..rollcages n jungle trekker tires for offroad use only.
I really enjoyed my holidays n looking forward for d next trip into d deep 10km jungle again.

Had my 1st ride in my dad's BMW E36 SR20 Nissan TURBO...damn stiff racing clutches..juz felt like my knees are tumbling down. What a feeling..speeding at a high speed with the wastegate that sounds like a squirrel inside d engine (says Jeremy Clarkson from TopGear).
I'm now impatiently waiting for my dad's Nissan Cefiro with a 100% LSD gearbox to be inplanted with another Nissan SR20. D cefiro had been sent for 'overhauling' but d mechanic is damn slow with his job..feel like breaking his neck.
