Ah Yea. (grandfather)

yup

So who can answer me?

The Turtle dreamed on....

This round is in PG...

oweing to the time of the year, everybody's kind of busy and had a lot of other commitments on Saturday night... and this round's saturday night sprint was quietly slipping away. The very few who could have made it, were also basing on other's going - waiting for the herd, this one, or some other herd...

The latest is that the Tegs are going in. and will meet at the old Woodlands Central Car Park at 8.30 pm. I think some of our hard core ES bros might want to go in wif them.

It should be interesting if lots of Tegs went in to PG to play... ES of course no fight la... but, at least can see how well these tegs can sprint lor... although the real king of the tegs are not present... newly constructed, and going for trials, finishing touches not completely in yet... that would really tear up the track for all to see when it's ready... dunno when hahha


This one's gonna fizzle... as with the 10 December Open Track Day event... it clashes with the photoshoot of the East, and hopefully the ES group as well... and given the less than lukewarm interest (also due to december bonus not out yet la...) most probably we will go in March or April 2007 in force.

The dream is to connect with the Malaysian Team ES at Sepang... and have a big ES meet there... that would be interesting... I wonder if I can get bro mwtang to do something once the March/April Track days are firmed up... Else they also come with a few NA ES, and we combine to make 30 or more, to book the whole track for a few hours... hmmm...


shud be an interesting project to make it a reality.


let the Turtle dream on...

I was browsing tru this forum and realised that the actual Team ES is less than 20 members...


Prior to this discovery, I have had this thought that I could bring together this big Team ES to meet up with the Malaysian Team ES at Sepang or some other interesting venue to make friends, exchange info, and sharing... as well as some friendly fun on the racetrack. They had come to JB before and very few of us went to danga bay to meet them... but at that time, there was no Team ES Singapore....

It shud be quite fun to establish formal ties with our counterparts. But when I saw the 'official list' and the numbers they carry, it's quite different from the other forum... I was quite surprised... so the Team ES here is not the same as the Team ES there?

Or members there need to re-sign up here?

I'm confused. If i were to go ahead to do this, i'd rather we go up in a large convoy, or at least a large group meet up there than to have a trikle of cars from singapore's TES, and meet up with a hundred Malaysian Team ES vehicles... that would be the peak of the term 'sia suay'...

Maybe we are really the little red pimple in the midst of our neighbouring bros. not they call us... it is us... formed in the heat of the moment, gather up, and then just fade away naturally, or burst out and die...

Or are we the type who would rise to the challenge, and make effort to create a group that is active, and outgoing, and fun loving, yet organised and have some discipline to move together when such an event like the meeting of two ES teams happen, even in Sepang, Malaysia?

The deep down of me looks at the many legitimate reasons that fuel this pimple - other commitments, this is not a priority to singaporeans, cannot drive up becos of car problem... etc... or plain refuse to cross the border.

Is this Team really so predictable? of course, those who read will spite it and just show it can be done... is the end result the same then? challenge them into going? wow... must like that har? den the challenger is the willing sacrifice - for he shall have nobody accept him as a 'respected member' - just the antagoniser... worse, next events total boycott... make it a waste of time...

Now would anyone step onto this plate and swing the bat?

hahaha... I would, it would only be once... the next round the Malaysians may invite.. but would we 'entertain' their invitation, or site more legitimate reasons for declining?? the more i think of this, the more i need to think whether to do it or not... and... wait... Team ES Singapore has no reputation to begin with... hahahaha... can just make it start at a huge deficit in their eyes by organising a colossal flop... costs no money leh... just petrol/toll fees to drive up and down... and hotel if staying overnight... which it shud be the case - after sepang go KL somewhere for big group dinner... hahaha... I'm very sure the Team ES Malaysia will turn up in force... so the group will be big... just how many Team ES singapore can join in that is real question.
