congrats to team televas racing white for the strategic win on a very very wet 8 hour race. brilliant competition with Aliens Predator. Our team televas racing black did a good result too - so thanks to the team for the great driving and the strategy led by zul.

thanks to all the other participants - all 14 teams. i must also commend everyone for driving extremely well in difficult conditions: we had zero physical incidents... not even a lost bumper!

i thought 8 hours was mad, but racing in the wet for around 7 hours was even more loco!

i must state my appreciation to Edwyn who has been tirelessly driving the event, and support from Naza and Luen. I would like to thank the Mark Timms and the televas team who also conducted the Telerookies initiative to bring in more drivers into karting. also a big thanks to the ladies: eva, emmy, em'ly, lynda who administered the driver changes throughout the wet 8 hours.

also would like to thank the partners who supported us throughout the way: definitely citykarting enterprises, lotus cars malaysia, john king karting, bardahl (did i miss anybody?).

join me thanking these people.

*ps, naza / edwyn - pls post the full results too.

naza | First of all, Congrats to

First of all, Congrats to TTR White!

Its amazing that there was not a single incident and what a memorable race it was. Other than a couple of hot tempered situations, the race went as planned (the rain was a good anger dampener).....kudos to you Ed!

We cannot thank enough the lovely ladies who marshalled 84 drivers to have each pit pass checked from 11am to 7 pm. To Eva, Emmy, Em'ly, Lynda, we truly appreciate it!

....bring on the next enduro!

saa73 | Fantastic event! I had

Fantastic event! I had plenty of fun tweeting, twitpicking, parading with TeleBabes, and oh, yes I did a couple of stints too when the team strategy called for "getting the fat buggers out on the wet track"..

Key highlights for me:

- Safety first as demonstrated by organising committee and drivers
- TeleBabes
- The fact that EVERYONE was competitive even in the wet
- Team spirit all round
- Superb organisation and coordination from the key organising committee
- The rain, thanks for not stopping and making this event even more interesting that we hoped for
- How smooth James and Nizer are in the wet...
- TeleBabes
- My health, still no sniffles despite being asked to go out when it was pouring the heaviest..I asked Naza, as it was chucking down buckets.."sure or not", to which he replied "of course...the show must go on!" Nice.
- Spirit of fun and family shown by all
- TeleBabes
- EXCITEMENT to the last minute...it was a very close race between TeleVAS White and Aliens Predator....
- Have I mentioned the TeleBabes?...

Kudos to Edwyn, Naza, Luen and everyone else involved in making this happen. We're all set for the 12 Hours Mega are you out of your mind Endurance next year!

And to Mark and Team TeleVAS, well done...I want to cry now...

And finally, if there were instances where tempers went short, or if things didn't go anyone's way, I hope you take this as just a bit of fun to celebrate another fun year in my-Kart..
