will do Sing though, you done my T shirt yet, I will be over this Friday.
will be a few weeks ... just getting the quotes in from all the disreputable companies!John I've no plans to go this year, but if I'm in town we can meet for a beer. Best way to go is to get a tame taxi driver to drop you at the Petronas station outside the circuit, use a taxi from the Low Cost Terminal, then on race day as they are going to the airport on the other side of the curcuit enterence they get transfferd by the police to the ouside lane of the opposite carrige way (the 'wrong' side of the road) and drive in fast, they stop and drop you off and you walk up the hill,
Coming back you walk out and down the hill and meet at the petronas station which is on the right side of the road for a fast exit.
This way saves all the trouble of waitng to get in and pout of the car ppark 100Rm each way is top/good rate
if you want the name of a good taxi driverlet me know and I'll PM you the name of the one i use.
This way is hours quicker than trying to drive out yourself.

Yea I'll be there by the looks of things... Haven't been checking on here much which I think is down to the fact that Singapore doesn't come close to meeting my octane ambitions.
Planning on driving up (hire car) and staying KLCC ish way I guess as at least it's okay for evening drinks etc.
Maybe meet up there if you guys are flying?

I will be in KL the weekend of 17-18 and the GP weekend, suggest we try to have beer meet in Bukit Bingtang, what about the evening of Friday 23rd of Saturday 24th,
John if we use the Green man in Chankit, I'm fairly certain I could negotiate a dicount on the beer.
Sounds like a plan !!!John if we use the Green man in Chankit, I'm fairly certain I could negotiate a dicount on the beer.
Who else?
Will be down there with some friends who are stopping off on their way back from the Melbourne GP the weekend before. Will be in the K1 stand at the end of the pit straight.
Will be braving the traffic and driving, just accepting it will take a while - going to be down there Saturday and Sunday, maybe even the Friday, so can't be done with fannying around with taxis, particularly having witnessed the chaos at the end of the Moto GP event - people and taxis everywhere !! Have a parking ticket for the car park behind the K1 stand so not far to walk to and from the car.
Might try and get down to the Green Man on the Friday night, seeing as it's not an early start the next day...
