KK? I would like to invite Malaysia Rally Championship organizers or better, WRC to race here in KK. You don't have to go into the middle of the jungle, the city roads is really challanging enough, suddenly gravel and suddenly change to tarmac. The roads here is also a big hazard to all kind of road users, be it a bicycle, a motorcycle, a Kancil, a Wira, a Subaru Imprezza WRX STi, 4x4, heck even 10t lorry. Potholes are everywhere and I mean everywhere, even they're repaired, it still pops out after a few days due to poor road repairing procedures and handling(they just filling it with "some" bitumen rocks, sometimes filling it with sands only, road lines are not drawn according to road safety plan(imagine a road with 1 Wira car length is divided into 2 directions single lane road), roads had been cut by landslide were not repaired for 2 years, sudden crest and trout, stupid road had been twisted around until you can see the line zig-zagged, road foundation is not adequately prepared, road condition is worse than W Msians and Sawarakians. I wonder the PM ever ride on our roads before when he have his visit this year, did he comment on anything at all? Or he only travel by helicopter and never check how is the road condition at all. Gotta give him a personal ride in my car.
Wiralution with 4WD is illegal? We can take this road issue to the PM office about the road conditions here if they ever dare mention about illegal conversion to 4WD. Well, for me, 2 pairs of 14" rims become oval edi, now using a 15" rim and it's going to be oval. Or squared? Absorbers? 1 year sure kong edi, sometimes 1/2 year. Lowering your car in KK is wasting of money and inconvenient, you can only select a few good condition roads to run, also some of the humps are made to slow 4x4, and you can imagine how high the bumps is. So I raise my Wira height to 6 fingers-height up front from wheel to fender and 5 fingers-height for the back, even with my curerent settings, I still get bottom-rubbed.
If I find a few free time with me I'll take a few shots for you all how worse and dangerous the roads here. Fellow Sabahans ZTHians please help me too. You have to see it to believe it.
