April 2012 - Pangkor Drive (East Coast Bimmer Drive)

[BaddBoyz3]

Bro VKS, since the itenary change, I think we should leave earlier to make it at spg pulai at 1130. My car has a lower rate of speed

Propose meet up @ Jln Tunku Kudin (opp Tesco) @ 0930? Rate of speed is relative, as long as we're above the speed limit is ok by me hehehe.. :rock:
