    Yeah! I won the PS2 challenge last year. Honda Malaysia gave me a a racing T-shirt, a Racing Shirt, a Honda Racing Cap and best of all a Emerald Grandstand Ticket worth RM1700 to the F1 Sepang GP last year! I won the other PS2 event organise by SIC the year before but their prizes suck, just a Hill Stand Ticket worth RM100. I would be challenging for the next Road Show this year when it comes to my hometown! Thanks for the reminder Paul.

    They have that kind of PS2 competition during road show. Wow!! I wanna try my luck. What type of game are they having? Formula 1 2008? practice.. practice.. And do they use normal PS2 console or do they use PS2 steering for the control..?

    Hopefully they will do better this year. Last year’s performance was not good.

    i dont think the honda f1 team is underrated, just that they’ve managed to totally mess up their entire 07 season. hopefully, they will do better this season.

    They early favourites are Hamilton, Raikkonen and Alonso, but dont discount Massa and also watch out for the Beemers.

    Honda Malaysia very active in doing F1 roadshows in these recent years and they’re generous too..last 2 years i got a consolation price Honda Racing Cap in the PS2 challenge in Mid Valley and missed last year’s event as I was in oversea. Heard this year they’ll invite the winner to their F1 Party and grand stand ticket as well. What about other makes?? BMW, Merc,Toyota,Renault…..
    Nothing for us to grab? Dont be so stingy lah..
