It was awesome!
Since I got two Pit-Walk tickets, I took Aqil along.
We left early around 10.30 am, because we needed to be there way
before the race to attend the Pit-Walk, and we nearly didn't make it
cos' of this massive traffic jam due to an over-turned truck.
The line for the Pit-Walk was UBER LOOOOOONG; and it was HOT!
But we waited anyway.
And we took 'candid' pictures of each other while waiting.
Lol.
And trust me when I say, it was HOT!
Finally after a good 15 minutes the line started moving into the pits. It was cool going through the underground tunnels to head to the pit HQ. Once the pit lanes were open, everyone rushed in to get a better look at the cars and the GT Queens; and there were many of them. (Cars and GT Queens) You know, till just now, I thought the GT Queens that were at Malaysia's GT leg were all local; till I heard them speak Japanese with one another. That's when I realized that these chics are legit Japanese meat. xP
And we also spotted Julian! xD
There were also a bunch of European chics with one Asian promoting Aston Martins.
And they were all hot as well (Except maybe the Asian, who was the only person I was able to take a picture with. -.-) . Oh and two of them were freakishly tall as well.
Even the Safety car was cool. It was the new Nissan GT-R.
And this my friends, is EAGLE 14, from the new Malaysian Highway police artillery.
Its a modified Mitsubishi Lancer. Impressive, but no chance if it's going after a Porsche Cayman or even a 350Z I reckon.
After the Pit-Walk we went over to the Corporate Suites to have lunch while waiting for the race to start. The suite was super nice and cozy; and the food was awesome, but the suite sucked out the whole racing atmosphere as you can't really hear the crowd and feel the heat. So we just stayed in there for lunch and went back out. We just went in every time we felt hot and/or thirsty. xP
The race starting procedures started around 3.30 pm when all the GT Queens came out to the track and lined up and all for the National anthems of both Malaysia and Japan. That's when all the cars took their places on the track too.
All of a sudden, we spotted Julian on the middle of the track again! xP
Then the whistle to clear the area blew so that they could start the race. Everyone on the track were clearing out and the crowd got silent.
Few minutes after that, the countdown started, and the lights turned green, and off they went; and MAN ARE THEY LOUD!
The race went on for about an hour, but Aqil and I didn't stay for the duration of the race. That's cos' we were afraid of the jam and we both had Father's Day dinners to attend, so we didn't want to risk being late. Sent Aqil home before I reached home around 6.00 pm. All in all, a good day out and a good day free of boredom.
Here are some random shots from the day.
That's about it folks!
~Zooooooooomm!!!
