Disclaimer Tongue

Below TT Report are partly true, partly fictitious, but all characters are more than real, only that the description may be a bit more exaggerating, and some salts, sugar, ketchup and various spices have been added to steam up the scenes, so if you do get offended on any part of the story .... too bad Big Smile, naaaahh, just shout, we will edit the story.

NOTE: I said `WE`, not `I` Big Smile, it`s OUR story.

Oh, and the sequence of people turning up is likely to have mixed up, if it`s so, as said, just shout !

 

About Ah Tee Big Smile
Well, it`s an usually bright and shiny Tuesday morning, weather was good and it appeared to be a kinky good day for an outing. So, I got up early, did a quick brush-up (not myself) but my car Big Smile, last minute work, but gee, nevermind-lah, it won`t be the main `attraction` anyway. Shock was i when i couldn`t locate my camera, quickly SMS to ckkin, and he replied saying that he`s already there !!! Shock at 9:30am ....... anyway, i was a little late, so quickly packed n go.

On the way
Since NAM is over, so i guess most of our `protectors of the people` are back in `business`, so i decided to be a `good boy` and stick to the speed limit, fortunately the traffic was pretty clear, so managed to reach Subang about 10:15 am, upon turning into the junction, i could see there were a few joint tables at the 1st mamak shop, found a parking spot, drove in and did a quick brush on my hair (just in case Alice is already there Tongue)

The group
When approached the bench. Uncle Soong (with red-sore eyes Big Smile) greeted me, also spotted Acoustic, leeyn was there early as well along with his friend Mr. Ho (hope i got his name right) and Ansac02 with his trademark smile. Smile <-- like that-lah.

Was surprise that ckkin is nowhere to be seen, then Uncle Soong said that he`s actually at the `right place` whereas we were at the `wrong place`.

Clarifications :-
- `right place` : TAJ Curry House
- `wrong place` : TAJ Cafe
 
But TAJ Curry House has aircon facility, that`s why ckkin, pokemon, riptor and yolk were so relunctant to move out from that place Big Smile Also, about the `red-sore` eyes of Uncle Soong, after our interrogation, we found out that it was not because of what we suspected - over-dosed of blue-pills, but instead he was doing his, deeply addicted, ICE tuning work until 2am ..... sigh ..... Big Smile Now you know why Auntie Soong so mad at him spending on his ICE
Tongue

OK, back to the story, as we started to settle down, ordering drinks and makan, people started to flow in, Uncle Soong was sharing with the group about his `interesting` encounters with UMWT SCs, while Acoustic was furiously clicking on his digital camera, saying got problem-lah, actual fact is that the memory is 100% used, 90% was on his `baby` in the workshop from day 1 until the 9th month `delivery`, the other 10% was from the 1st meeting he had with Kilogram`s girls (sizzling type, for his eyes only Tongue)

Then we saw Flee walking towards us, gracefully as before, holding his digital camera, and we all were so relieved, now at least we have one working camera to save the day, he`s the HERO ! Smile

Warming up
The chitchat went on, many topics were touched upon, the cars, the ICE (incidentally, Uncle Soong and Acoustic were wearing the ICE Group T-shirt, when are we going to get ours ? Smile), even the Mini bus (wonder why? just join our TT next time), then ckkin, pokemon, yolk and riptor finally (though reluctantly) moved over and joined us. waikc joined in, not long after that, Royce arrived and so did MK84 and GT20v.

Then a `seasoned` Nissan passed by, Ansac02 immediately spotted that (but not sure he spotted the car, or Kilo`s partner Tongue), after a while, the ever pleasant Kilogram and our pretty lady guest arrived, immediately the manly, macholy group discussion suddenly turned so rosary and all the men turned into obedient boys, looking at their own toes and didn`t know where to put their hands (or did they know Big Smile). So it did get `warmer`, thanks to the rising sun and our lady guest ....

Then ckkin spotted a Seremban plate# Altis and alerted me, so, it was tnigel, went over to escort him, waited for him (patiently Tongue) while he put on the wheel lock, the gear lock, the paddle lock, the front windscreen shade, side windows shades, rear window shade, only then he handed over two packs of Seremban Xiu Pao, as we chatted and walked toward the mamak, he reminded me, "Hey, one of the pack is for Alice, remember-ah!" When tnigel was introduced, everyone was cheering .... for the xiu paos Big Smile.

As it went on, while everyone was busy sipping their drinks and chewing the xiu pao (Kilogram had SEVEN !) tsuprasonic appeared in his full `suit`, `branded` all around so loyal to his company Smile but haiya.... didn`t even bring everyone a cap Big Smile, next time remember-ah. Then fastlane and Mrs also joined in, followed by Vincent & wify (leeyn`s pal from Estima group), mikoloh and pal. While everybody busy greeting n chatting, there came one `Lexus` vroooooming all the way and slotted into the parking lot right infront of us, who else can it be other than our fellow pal kevinc from 02100 (that`s not Beverly hill`s postcode but Zero-to-Hundred Big Smile), and so did our regular da_krow have also arrived.

Talks, talks n talks
Now, how could i possibly write this part ? There were so many people, each small groups was talking on their own topics, people were also moving around in between .... i can only recalled overhearing Acoustic lecturing on his Super Project, Uncle Soong brainwashing the group on the importance of ICE, FLee`s lesson on photography to Alice and Kilogram, Royce and tsuprasonic on Altis and Vios, and many `Siapa nak order air ?` from the mamak attendants Big Smile. Then once somebody asked, `Which one is tnigel?` then tnigel shyly stood up and showed himself (although a bit disappointed that it was not Alice who was looking for him Tongue), then also, we had Uncle Soong continued to bring people to his car for deeper `brainwash` sessions, many also appreciating the baby `Lexus` ......

Drama at the TT: Acoustic's friend pulls up
at the TT with a shattered windscreen

Photo session
And that went on for about 2 strong hours+, we saw the misfortunate shattered windscreen of Acoustic`s friend, much to our pity to him but it was late, so we had no choice but left him to Acoustic`s good hand and proceeded to the Subang lake for our photo session. Well, some of the participants were unable to join us there, leeyn and pals, waikc, pokemon and such, we did manage to gather a group of about ten cars nicely arranged under our Pro photographer FLee`s instruction, took a couple of group photos, people and the machines. Then also the individual shots of the owners and their beloved vehicles, everyone did their best post and that was done.

Well, the show didn`t end as that, we continued to chitchat and shared many laughter, especially the one about Uncle Soong climbing onto Alice Tongue.

tnigel popped up his cover, errr, I mean the bonnet of his car and showed the gang about his new mounting for the Altis, then one after another, all the cars were `unzipped`, so, another couple of group photos were taken. Oh, we also had a round of `cooling treat` from Uncle Soong`s new-found ICE friend Big Smile. Levin818 was busy testing the cars, and let many tested his beautiful machine, Levin of course Smile.

New projects were also being discussed where Uncle Soong promise quality ICE for fastlane if he can find twenty grands to burn Big Smile. Although nobody brought sun block, the gang was enjoying the 2 hours+ under the hot sun (anyone got sunburn ?), topics were covered from engine to tyres, from steering wheel to quad-turbo for my Unser, from drowning Camry to the demo of the IBE, but too bad the IBE didn`t play CDs Big Smile.

And so while everyone had quite enough and decided to leave, we heard vrooooooooooming engine noise coming towards us, just like The Fast and The Furious, once red Celica, the black `Lexus` and a couple more, came and joined us (finally), so, it went on, but some had started to leave and eventually at around 3pm+, we decided to call it a day and left the Subang lake with a nice day TT.
