Merdeka Millenium Endurance Race 2008

I'm writing this entry from Sepang International Circuit. Yes, the day has finally arrived! It’s the Merdeka Millenium Endurance Race day.

I got here around 10:00 am and quickly made my way to the Red Bull Rookies pit (Parking was so bloody far away!)

Before we check out the pictures, let’s see what was written in the media today:

The Star:

"In the Class B race for cars between 1601cc and 1900cc, a local team led by S.T. Low came out tops with an aggregate time of 2:38.2. However, the all-women team from RedBull Rookies Racing Team, stole their thunder.

In her debut in the 12-hour endurance race, Leona Chin clocked a sensational 2:38.407 to help team-mates Phillipa Yoong and Puteri Ayu Jasmin to an aggregate time of 2:39.6 and second spot in the time sheet."

The girls has entered the track with bang, and hopefully they will do well!
The gals

Ready to race!

The team.

Ready to get into action!

Yeah!

12:00 noon : Let the race begin!


I'll try to update this entry from time to time.

2.30 pm: The front bumper of the DC2 fell off. But the car and the girls is still going.

3.30 pm: I saw a car with burning tyres! (Not the Rookies, don't worry)

4:15 pm: There's a huge dark clouds coming towards SIC. Looks like it's gonna be raining. Heavily.

6:00 pm: The clouds are gone! Someone must have hired a bomoh to handle it.

6.30 pm: 1 Aston Martin is out. It just crashed and the engine is smoking. But the driver is okay.

7.30 pm: The DC2 is in a pretty bad condition but still running

8.30 pm: I'm watching The Firm at the media centre

9.00 pm: The girls are picking up. They are in the top 10!

10.30 pm: I just put myself in a big problem. We were talking about having sexy umbrella boys next year and I agreed to be one if the gals made it to the podium tonight.

11.00 pm: It's really tight. They have chance to be in top 6! I am so in trouble.

12.00 pm: The race just ended and the gals got 8th place. We're very proud of them

UPDATE: The official result has been issued and the Rookies got 6th place. I am in big trouble.

~Cheers!
