For the first time ever since the 70's the largest gathering of Supercars is making their way uphill...

The Berjaya Hills Time Challenge 09 in Malaysia was held on the 8th - 10th Oct 09. It's an event open to owners of models from exotic marques like Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini, Maserati, Lotus and Aston Martin, this event has been earmarked to be the largest gathering of Super / Performance cars in Malaysia for 2009 (Limited to 100 participants) Competitors are encouraged to drive quickly but at a controlled manner up and down the 8km winding road course. Another highlight at the event would be the Forest-One Time Attack obstacle competition. This will put to test the individual handling skills of drivers of a large variety of supercars. I was honored to be invited by the organizer himself JP Chin who is a regular feature in the motor racing industry in Malaysia. With not much preparation with what's up ahead i decided to call along some of my 'hardcore' buddies and take part in this prestigious event.

The hotel that we'll be staying for the next 3 days...Colmer Tropicale. Inspired by the original Colmar Village in Alsace, France,Colmar Tropicale is a picture postcard come alive! At its heart is Colmar Square, a cobblestone central courtyard where you can enjoy outdoor dining and street performances.

The next morning is the convoy to Royal Selangor Pewter, our sponsors for the race. With over 100 cars all hammering down the E8 highway, it was a sight to behold. With every car carrying numbers and an array of sponsor’s stickers, it looked more like the Cannonball Run

The organizer had arranged for a police escort of 8 outriders which was even more amazing as this massive collection exotic machinery made its way through the streets of KL with red lights ignored and junctions made clear for our arrival. I felt like the Royal family!
