Good road to test car
-
Was wondering where are the roads suitable to test cars? Preferably one with relatively light traffic, with good road condition and most importantly, safe from TP.
LCK area was good till the TP starting patroling that area regularly. -
No place is safe from the TP. GO NORTH, fines are cheap and no demerit points. U should be able to see the max speed ur ride can achieve.....to me this is more interesting than 0-100 km/hr timings.Originally posted by evoMR79:Was wondering where are the roads suitable to test cars?

Also the all important mid-range acceleration tests can be conducted.....i.e from 110km/hr to 200km/hr then on to 220km/hr and then whatever your car can reach flat out.......all these can only be done up North without fear of losing liscense. -

for ur consideration...
Errrm...juz a thought, if we have to find a place 'safe' to utilize the performance bracket mentioned, what difference would it make if we dun try it at all?!

Actually for us more seasoned drivers, we have already mapped out the location of the spycamsOriginally posted by no_speeding:last week new paper juz report a motorist got 8 summons on one trip up north to KL...

These are unmanned and mounted under the bridge.....one trip, I deliberately drove slowly all the way just to check which bridges have such a mounting 
Key these locations into the GPS.
For the spot checks, there are a few regular hotspots, the lazy bums do not venture far from their favourite haunts.
8 tickets if because he is a green horn......if u want to utilise the performance bracket of a high performance vehicle, u have got to pay school fees sometimes -
