Due to a restructuring exercise, Malaysia Airport Holdings, the current owner of the Sepang F1 circuit is trying to sell off the circuit. The Ministry of Finance agreed in 2003 to buy the circuit for USD 103.6 million (RM 391 million) but apparently the sale is being held up by Bernie Ecclestone’s Formula One Management.
Apparently there are some legalities with a country owning a circuit being used in the Formula One series, as Malaysia as a sovereign country cannot be taken to court in case anything happens. A solution is still being worked out.
KY, Kenneth and I headed over to Sepang for the A1 Grand Prix practice session yesterday, and we spotted this nicely done up Proton Savvy by the Race Rally Research Team. I assume this is a concept (or final?) design for the Proton Savvy R3’s bodykit, and I must say it complements the car well. Previously you saw this bodykit in black. Here’s one in red. The brighter colour makes it somewhat easier to see the details. The nice Advanti Racing rims are missing though. Click here to read the rest of Proton Savvy R3 Bodykit
I previously blogged about Audi’s supercar and called it the Audi R9, as most sites were speculating that name to be used, with the digit 8 already being used for it’s flagship luxury sedan, the A8/S8. Click here to read the rest of 2007 Audi R8
I previously blogged about a Proton Savvy accident here on my blog. I’m sure most of you would like to know how a Perodua Myvi would fare in a collision.
Though the accident in this series of photos are not as ‘hardcore’ as the one in the Proton Savvy accident, it should give you an idea of whether the crumple zone functions, and whether the passanger safety cell has been compromised. Photos thanks to mraha9 from Malacca (photographer) and cbljkkj.
Let’s hope we don’t ever get to see a completely crushed Perodua Myvi – pity the driver. Click here to read the rest of Perodua Myvi Accident

Forbes has published a list of the Automotive Turkeys of 2005. Turkeys, like lemons, are words used to describe failures. Maybe sales are bad. Maybe they fall apart after a few drives. Note that the list is based on cars sold in the USA, so turkeys in the USA might be roaring successes in other parts of the world. Let’s have a look at the list.
