It was a beautiful Sunday. The sun was up and the sky was bright.  Not very usual for this time of the year though.  Someone must have prayed very hard the previous night so that she can drive topless the next day.  Mind you, the car and not the driver going topless.  I was cruising along Jalan Kuching / Jalam Kepong, just enjoying basking in the morning sun till I reached the MRR2 / Jalan Kepong roundabout.  Damn it, I had to slow down and looking downhill in front of me are miles and miles of cars, lorries and whatever else that have wheels inching forward along the infamous  MRR2.  Thank you YB Sam Veloo for constructing this masterpiece to test our patience.  Slowly the drivers inch forward.  By now four lanes of traffic has been formed.  Twenty minutes and two kilometers later, we found out the root of the evil, four lanes have now been merged into a single lane.  So much for testing our patience, Sam.

 
     
 

Once the road constriction had been cleared, it is all system go.  Wanting to be very punctual for the RV, manage to bring the speedometer to 150 at the very short stretch, before pulling over into the Projet petrol station.  Quite a number of participants have arrived before me and barely ten minutes later all participants arrived.  A quick roll call confirmed the total participants named below  had arrived. 

 
     
  1) Benny  - Miata    
  2) Alex - Miata    
  3) Kang and Gene - Miata    
  4) EK Cheah - Miata    
  5) Mike & Louise - Miata    
  6) Chris - Miata    
  7) Md Nor - Porsche Boxter S    
  8) Jazzman & Jr  - Porsche Carrera 2    
  9) Faizal & Ellie  - Satria R3    
  10) Your faithfully & Emir - Miata    
         
 

Not bad, ten cars just to do a recce.  Of course it is contrary to military teaching that advocates recce party to be as small as possible.  Who cares what they teach.  We just want to have a good time, men and machines working in unison.  After a short briefing Benny took the lead as the leading scout with Jazz as the sweeper.
