Ok guys...alvin, me and a few of the members did a recce drive this morning to gather information on a new route...I must say that since this is an ultimate drive for our ultimate cars, then we need an ultimate route as well and I am glad to share this that we have found what we think an ultimate route. The recce this morning was such a rewarding drive that we finally found a route that is so amazing even our bro XXX radio us on the walkie talkie to say something that sounds...guys becareful this road is really crazy...imagine this coming from him (our resident rempit king)..hehehe

The route that we found was the missing link from Raub via Sg Koyan directly to Ringlet in Cameron Highland shown in red in the map below. We started at 7.30am and arrive in Raub for breakfast before continuing our journey to the missing link...this is a drive not to be missed for enthusiastic BMW owners...we arrive at Ringlet just before 12.00 noon...we did lunch or tea break at the Lakeview Guesthouse...continued the journey back via the trunk road to Tapah...another challenging route before entering the NSE...we stopped at the Tapah R&R for refuel and some food before heading back to KL...

The route map...

.....dont let the distance discourage you from joining this drive, it was fun all throughout the 400km that you wont feel that you actually drove 400km.

Tempting, but too early for me to tell.

this is to inform on date changes to this event.

Date is now moved to 17th April 2011...please take note...

thanks

 

[bmw7833]

Do we need to change to easier route?

When we claim as 5 series drive but only 4/5 cars appear is quite boring.
