BBS BBS fake.

My brother had been nagging to change the stock Neo's wheels. So after a while I'd say why not.. So we both agree to opt the BBS. I still prefer the fake TE37SL over this. But since this is the widest we can get, so we opt this.

Spec was 16' x 7j +40 and the rear one is 7.5j +42. The offset will be counter by a 1' spacer soon enough so that we can get a nicer fitment.

Ditch the red BBS cap, back to Proton cap.

There's small changes in the acceleration. This is due to that the stock wheels are very heavy. This wheels lighter than the stock one. Now fitment is nicer but I prefer it with spacer. Soon. I guess we both will change to a firmer coil over soon so that the car is lower thus better fitment. My brother already did a 4-2-1 extractor, aftermarket bullet and an S-Flow exhaust. I am still with the stock setup. Cant focus on two things. With bike and car, I prefer the bike for now.

Fun MX Endurance Challenge 2012.

Overall from this event was; First race ever. Prepared and sponsored by Wai Keong (WK) Motor for this event. Heat 1 (Per heat was one hour race) was all good. Heard that I was in the ranking until Heat 2 when the rear tire went flat and the gear lever was bent badly.  Finished 21 laps only. 8th place was 28 laps. Good experience though. Thank you Ken for giving me the chance to enter a competition.

Early in the morning. Warming up.

Well, what's the most challenging obstacle in this endurance race? Two steep and slipper hill to enter to the other side of forest.

All I can say is Alhamdulilah. I only fell two times and the rest was perfectly timing throttle and body weight transfer to pass this obstacle. This was the place I damaged my leg gear lever at least three times. Had to enter the pit to ask them to straighten it back. Plus with flat tire making it harder to steer the bike.

 Anyway, after the race I went straight back to JB. Class time. Time to sleep!
