Round 1 of the 2012 Conemasters International Gymkhana Challenge is taking place on Sunday 20 May 2012, and is in collaboration with ZeroToHundred’s prestigious TimeToAttack event.
Categories: FWD, RWD & AWD
RM250 per driver (RM150 for TimeToAttack drivers who also wish to participate in the gymkhana)
The day’s schedule will allow drivers to compete in both events as we are working with ZeroToHundred to make sure their category times and our category times do not clash and drivers have ample time to prepare for both sides of the event.
Venue: Sepang International Circuit Paddock Carpark
Time: 9am-5pm
Entry is FREE to spectators and this is a rare chance for members of the public to see a part of Sepang that is normally off limits!
After you have filled in the entry form, please email it to conemasters@gmail.com. Once your application has been approved, we will get in touch with you to make arrangements for the payment of registration fees.
PLEASE NOTE: You are not considered a participant of the event until we have received your registration fees.
Our friends in Songkhla, Thailand, organized a gymkhana event last weekend so we decided to go there and visit them before our insanely hectic racing season kicks off.
Thanks to Whiteline Southeast Asia and Lucas Oils Malaysia for supporting me on this trip!
Special thanks to Topfy and everyone at Top Auto Tire and P. Tee at T-Noodle House for their warm and generous hospitality!
I’ve been receiving a lot of emails asking me where the hell I’ve been and why I haven’t been updating my blog as often as I used to.
Well, the fact is I have been travelling a lot and usually meetings I have take all day and well into the night.
Why so many meetings?
Well … they are all for this:
Yes! Conemasters is back and bigger & better than ever!
Following the incredible success and response we received from our events/videos/general hoonage from last year, Jackson and I have been working our asses off to bring you bigger and better gymkhana races this year.
Our event is officially called the Conemasters International Gymkhana Challenge now.
I can’t say much else at this point in time except that this year is going to make last year seem like NOTHING.
We will have a lot of announcements in the coming weeks so please bear with me while I finalize all the details for this year’s events.
And for all those event organizers who are trying to copy what we are doing – GOOD LUCK. Hahaha
The last few months have been really strange for me. I’ve had to completely change the way I work and hit the ground running at the same time.
What’s changed? Well, I used to spend a lot of time in my studio. Now, I’m lucky if I can step into my office once a week.
I’m doing a hell of a lot of travelling nowadays (I just spent almost a week in a hotel in KL) and I think it’s only going to get more hectic with all the things I’ve got going on.
So that kinda explains why my blog has been more than a little quiet lately.
I haven’t forgotten about you guys, but it’s just that when you’re up at 7am and don’t get back in your hotel room until 1am then it’s kinda hard to sit down in front of the computer and type something cohesive.
I returned home very late last night and this morning I had a little bit of time so I’m typing this now. Later on this afternoon, I’ve gotta leave again!
Anyway, just to fill you in a little bit, on Monday, Jackson and I were in KL for the 2012 Super GT Press Conference.
Our presence there was requested by JPM Motorsport (the organizers of the Malaysian round of Super GT) since Conemasters was one of the official support race organizers last year.
