After Duta Toll's big curve road.

[turbolover]

Hey there,
anyone tried at what speed u guys are able to take on that big curve after the north south expressway duta toll?the road on the left and the one on the right is the new DUKE highway.
I tried 90km/h before and felt that my car was going to oveturn.haha.i went that fast because a lancer(not sure lancer or evo cos it was around 6something am)going damn fast and i let him pass.tried to catch up with him on the big curve but unable to as he was fast.maybe 100 or 110km/h.after that corner i exited and WOT to about 140km/h and he was still pulling away.damn!.
*on another note does a lancer GT come with HID?just checking cos that guy was unbelievably fast if it's an NA.:hmmmm:

I loves that nice curve!

 

[turbolover]

Whats the fastest speed u manage on that curve?

 

[EvolutionZ]

our road is uneven......careful guys...

 

[turbolover]

Yup thats a dangerous road and it still baffles me that lancer or evo could take the corners like it's on rails.

 

[EvolutionZ]

its wide and its not very curvy but with the uneven surface, better not risk it....and also from jln kuching towards duke highway....same case......curvy and uneven....wander why gov cant make the road an even one.....

 

[twodee]

im dealing with that curve almost every day....quite dangerous guys...dun try to be a hero....even im using tein hr also got scared...n 1 more thing, duke highway had too many uneven surface...be extra carefull guys.....cheers...

 

[turbolover]

The harder ur suspension set up the more dangerous it is on uneven roads.once hit and uneven surface there is no contact with the ground.DUKE highway i travel it once from duta to jln kuching when it was free.yeah bumpy.was going above legal speed limit and yeah it took me less than 5mins but i wa off my seat at some point.hehe.

carefull with those corners. saw 2-3 car overturn into the drain. once, saw an army jeep in the drain..:stupid:

i can see it clearly coz im in menara matrade

 

[turbolover]

Haha that is a crazy turn.you won't know how severe it is until you take that turn.

This curve is really very poorly thought out as when you are about slightly over half way through the corner, the curve will tighten even more. At this point a lot of drivers, I believe, will lift of their throttle but make a sharp turn on the steering, inducing what i also believe is "lift-off oversteer" (since most car are FF). Hence, a lot of people would spin either into the ditch or to the railings. The frequency occurs more often when there is rain on the road.

Trust me, do not be a hero and take this curve because I have seen too many accidents at this stretch especially when the road first opened and ppl were unfamiliar with the curve. There was one night (raining and dark) when there was atleast 3 to 4 spin at the same point. Really, really not advisable.

 

[turbolover]

Well said.

 

[Jutan Supplier]

when nego a tight turn.. better to accelerate abit while turn the steering...else will loose grip...

tat turn.... normally is 90km/h...max is 110km/h

my ride? wira sedan+Gab sport spring n suspension+falken azenis st115 tyres
road condition? daytime & dry

 

[egiewan]

Hahaha...thats my favorite corner! Max attack speed for me is only around 80-90kph. Dunwan to risk it...if my rear end give way, scared cannot counter in time haha.

 

[DDgreystar]

tried it once at 110 very very scary feel !!!!

Accidents happen around this corner when the roads are wet and not just this big curve too.

The small one from Jalan Duta leading to Duke is also very dangerous because a lot of ppl think they are heroes on the road and take the corner at speed where there is not room to maneuver. A small slip will lead to an accident with other road users so think twice before taking on that corner....

What road is it? Is it the left one towards sungei besi/pj after the toll booth you can see Solaris on the right side? The one that is very wide and very curvy?

I think the one going to KLIA after the toll (passing putra/cyberjaya) is more curvy & narrow & it's going downwards.

ahaha..a scandinavian flick by accident.

 

[mafia_staff]

hehehe scandinavian flick.. most of FF car will experience this.. happen to me twice and one time at curve flyover near Sg Besi airport..

Just in...

4am last night.

135kph through the corner.

Technique: slow in, fast out. DO NOT try to take the outside line as the corner tightens too much to hit the apex.
