I snapped this picture somewhere around Penang Street while holidaying with my family last week… Technically a difficult picture to take coz I was walking away from this apek ( I was facing the other way…) and the camera was under my right arm pit (teknik bawah ketiak)… That’s why we can’t see the apek’s full face…

I’ve been wanting to try this small gadget for ages… I managed to do so a few weeks back… Made up of aluminium sheet, the vortex generator is to be placed in the air intake ram leading to the throttle body… What it does is creating a vortex by swirling the cold air coming thru ram from the air filter box thus making the air more dense… Denser air is good for combustion… Other banefits includes…
I’ve been using it for about 2 weeks and what i noticed is that the car can reach 120km/h point easily… I dun really have to press the pedal hard like i used to… Overtaking another car is a breeze as i can feel the torque surge immediately after pressing the throttle… Engine idling improved significantly… Long gone are the rattling noise coming out of the dashboard most of the time… But i can’t say much for fuel comsumption though… I think it’s still the same….
For a lesson in making ur own vortex generator go to http://zerospeed.curvedspaces.com/beerclone_main.html

Azan just came back from the UK a few days back after completing his ACCA exams. I planned to meet Dollah that night and I thought it might be a good idea to have a teh tarik session with the whole clan so that we can exchange news and updates each other as well…. SMS was sent out by 3pm with the message as follows….
Within half an hour favourable responses came in and the the whole thing is a go…
And so it is… by 11.30 almost everyone were there… We have Azan, Syahar, Shidee, Faidz and your’s truely from the Damansara clan… G-Man, Mamal, Mayatz and RAff from Melawati, Keramat and Cheras clan… Dollah and Cheq from Troops of Doom clan… and no Akademi Fantasia on the tv… Hehehehe…
Latest update on Amad Champiang…
The Daniel Shield series of games were played over the weekend at VI Green. It is where the Old Boys get to play sport games against the Present Boys… The series includes football, rugby, badminton, water polo, ping pong, hockey and many more.
I played rugby for the Old Boys Team for the past 2 series… But health does not permit me to take part in this year’s series… Sounds corny huh…
Last year the Present Boys managed to conjure up an upset by beating the ‘Old Balls’. The score was 17-14… They won by a penalty kick from 30 yards out… The last time a Present Boys team won a rugby match against the OBs was when I was playing. That was in 1995… That team consisted of some of my best buddies during school days… Raff, G-Man, Shamrin, Anthony, Arman Popeye, Sek and many others…
So in this year’s series the OBs have a score to settle… I took the liberty of being the unofficial photographer as i’m not participating (tulang belakang bunyi ‘kruk kruk…’ ). The match went well for the OBs as they won by quite a margin… About 3-4 unanswered tries…
Sole representative of my 95 batch is Sek… We used to call him ‘lembu gila’ courtesy of his special ‘crazy cow’ runs… He’s still active playing though… Good for you Sek…
As for the Present Boys… There is always next year…
