Sunday 10th August 2008

Later that evening, we managed to interview several drifters who participated in the Toyo Drift Malaysia Series Round 2. Unfortunately the event ended earlier than we expected that day, so it was quite sad that we missed the best part of the event. Still, we hope that you will be glad to hear some interviews that we got from the participants.

TENGKU DJAN LEY

We all knew who Tengku Djan Ley is right? Well, we were very lucky to have the opportunity to interview Tengku Djan Ley that day. We can say that he was very happy, as his team (Team Bridgestones) conquered the top 2 spot and he won the 2^nd place that day, with his teammate Ivan Lau as the champion. We asked for his opinion on the event that day and he commented that the event was very encouraging with lots of spectators who came by. The fact that there were many audiences that day brought excitement to him as he felt more encouraged to exhibit his best skills in front of the large crowd. The race was also quite stiff, with all the racers showing their best skills and performances. He found it very attractive that the participants’ skills have shown positive growth and improvement. And as he mentioned, Malaysian motorsport has now becoming on par with other countries. Once again we would like to congrat him for winning the second place with his new car. Amazing wasn’t it? All the best Tengku Djan!

IVAN LIM

Ivan Lim was the representative from Team Binter and he was one of the best racers on that day. He was very excited during our interview and he said he was more than happy when we asked him about his expectation for the event. According to him, it was a good event and well-organized as well. Other drifters were showing good performances too. “Everything is ok!” he said and added that the most important thing was that we have fun when we race. Of course, safety is the first priority. He also mentioned that he would like to improve more on his skills. With the high spirit that he has, we wish him the best in his future. Good luck Ivan Lim!

MR LOK SIFU

Mr Lok was a drifter from Kepong Drifter team. When we first saw him, he looked happy and satisfied with the race which had just took place. He said that the race was great and there were no weaknesses in the race. He added that his performance was good as his car was also in good condition. When asked about his hope in this sport, he mentioned that this sport could have improved more if there is a better track that is specially design for this sport.
