  The water bowl system to train BC driving k230 is quite useful. This is also one way of training the BC the sensitive braking of the k230.
  
  OT: if you watched initial D live action movie or anime, you will understand what i mean.

  What time you took the trip? This bus has a braking problem as the bus will jerk a bit if its applied the usual way.

  I think I saw 5252 or 5225 or a KUB along those lines (I know it was 52XX) doing TRG in Hougang earlier. Brand spanking new, rims no dirt or blemish at all. Pity the bus, kena mistreated by trainees :P.

   

  Actually, it's a KUB. No pity for it then.
