Yes, u can. It's open to all spectators. No entrance fee, so far. It's like the motorcross event.

wow intresting how do we get there and isit possible for us to get media passes?

No media pass needed. Maybe uncle Chng can organise a Nikon outing for this....

Big Bear joining this competition? :think:

[melvinchia]

judging from the amount of dust/mud/dirt thrown up by these.. i think i'll go with a PnS.. maybe S5IS.. too risky for DSLR..

 

[JacePhoto]

cool siah. Thanks for the info.

I like to be there!

 

[poondq]

Yup, he is. He's taking part in Cat A. See u there.

Don't worry, use tele can liao. Based on my driving experience, u stand around 5 meters away should be safe. But when the cars run on gravels/stones, don't stand behind it cos stones will fly.

isit the same place @ tuas circuit where is the exact location of it later lost die...

Should be the same. If not, look out for Modded 4X4 or those with stickers. Cars like Toyota Rush, Prado, Rav4, Terios, Suzuki Jimny, Vitara, SX4, etc. will be running around that area.

:cheergal: marked on my diary now....I am going to support them!

Thanks you, sis. See u there.
