Need for Speed - Malaysia Grand Prix

The 2007 Formula 1 Grand Prix season started off with a bang this year. The second racing event in the circuit was enjoyed in Kuala Lumpur as Malaysia hosted the 2007 Grand Prix at its Sepang International Circuit course during the first weekend in April.

Included in the Grand Prix Formula One Racing Championship in 1999, the Malaysia circuit, hosted at the Sepang racecourse near Kuala Lumpur, is fast becoming one of the most popular events in that part of Asia. Since their first year in the F1 racing circuit, the Malaysian course has offered drastic changes in weather to challenge F1 drivers, as well as a 56-lap, 5.54 km racecourse filled with hair-raising turns and straight-aways that beg for speed.

The Sepang racecourse, built in 1998, has become the guiding design of subsequent F1 racetracks around the world, and has led the way to offering a major global event that attracts thousands of visitors every year to this exotic country filled with charm, grace and history. Sepang is known to be one of the most technical circuits in the Grand Prix circuit, and its combinations of tight turns and straight-aways make it one of the most exciting courses for both drivers and spectators.

The racetrack, a mere 3.5 kilometers from the New Kuala Lumpur International Airport, is easily accessible by taxi and can be reached within a ten minute drive. Shuttle services also transport passengers back and forth as well, but most visitors opt to stay at least a few days to enjoy the atmosphere and amenities that Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia have to offer.

This year’s race saw Fernando Alonso crossing the finish line first for the McLaren-Mercedes racing team, and hot new rookie Lewis Hamilton, whose debut in the Australian Grand Prix in March 2007 saw him taking third, followed Alonso across the line to finish second in an exciting, heart-stopping race that had crowds at Sepang on their feet.

The roar of engines and the smell of hot rubber and warm asphalt drifted over the thousands who came to witness the exciting race, which saw Alonso maintaining an almost nine second lead over Hamilton the later half of the race as onlookers watched with wide-eyed excitement and cheered for the efforts of other racers, including Kimi Raikkonen, who finished third for Ferrari.

After Australia, the F1 site at Kuala Lumpur offered racing fans not only a drastic change in temperature, but sights as well. Malaysia, offering a quaint combination of modern amenities and architecture with simple Asian charm, provided domestic and global visitors with a different view of the world as seen by Malaysians. The capital city of Kuala Lumpur welcomed global visitors to the event with open arms and tasty treats that delights the palate.

Keep an eye on the McLaren-Mercedes racing team comprising of Alonso and the rookie fast making a name for himself in the F1 world, Lewis Hamilton, in upcomin Grand Prix as both give fellow racers a fast, exciting run for their money.

The Need for Speed and Car Loans

Cars have become a way of life these days. Even with global warming on the rise, the demand for cars does not seem to be falling. Instead, we are watching as eco-friendly cars come into the market. And people are still rushing to get loans and buy their very own set of wheels. The need for speed has become a necessity today. Snail mail is completely passe as email has taken over from it almost completely. The rise of the Internet has ensured that there is a need for speed. Nobody today would walk if he could fly off instead. The twenty-first century is the age of speed.

The need for speed makes it crucial for everyone to have a vehicle, or at least aspire towards one. Moreover, these days most of us can manage to buy a car. Auto loans have become very easy on the pocket. As a result, more and more potential car buyers are hoping to benefit from the current situation. If you own property or some other valuable asset that can act as collateral, you are fortunate. Secured car loans generally offer much lower interest rates than do unsecured car loans. Thus, if you can avail of a secured loan, your overall costs will be much lower.

Of course, unsecured car loans can be great options sometimes. These days, with the proliferation of loan providers on the Internet, it is certainly quite easy to find the best deals. Even people with a history of bad credit can avail of competitively priced auto loans. The loans that are offered to people with bad credit histories usually come with higher interest rates. But as a result of the great rivalry among loan providers these days, getting a cheap auto loan is fairly easy.

In fact, while purchasing a car, one must look out for the most inexpensive car loans possible. After all, a car will require a good deal of maintenance. You will have to fill fuel and send the car for regular servicing. Moreover, you cannot help but buy some good car insurance. As in the case of loans, cheap car insurance is not too tough to locate these days.

However, you cannot just sit around and expect cheap insurance (or loans for that matter) to drop in from nowhere. Instead, you must do your share of studying the markets before making the final decision on the insurance policy. All that effort will help you find the best one.

Balancing Speed With Safety In Sports Car Racing

Whether it be racing on the streets or racing on the track you should always know how to speed the right way while in a sports car which means driving fast safely. Even though you may know how to race already here are a few things you can do to better your time on the track.

If you are a rookie do not rev it all up at the start because you are probably just going to spin the tires off the line trying to get into 2nd gear. For a more advanced racer you should rev the motor where you like its RPM range at then when the signals come or the arms drop you let the clutch out and throttle it out of the pocket.

On straight- a ways you should be near top speed and should already know how to handle the car at these types of speeds. Starters should always use both hands when trying to reach a top speed or trying to top out a car.

A more advanced racer should know how to accelerate on the throttle and slow down on it around corners. Pulling more on the throttle will throw the car more towards the wall where as slowing down before a turn will allow you to get inside of the turn and maybe take the lead or win. You should only steer when turning. Not saying you shouldn’t have your hands on the wheel just try not to turn the vehicle as that will decrease speed.

There is more than 1 way to turning a corner. Gradual turns will put you to the outside of the track where as pulling inside will shoot you out faster. Starters should get used to this first when running on the track.

If you are trying for a tight turn you might be trying to drift the corner a little bit which could spin you out or put you ahead if you do it right. This kind of cornering is for the more advanced type of racer as it requires you to brake while keeping your foot on the throttle at the same time. Come to the corner slow then pull out of it as fast as you can without spinning the tires and that will get you out ahead of everyone.

Be focused and take note each race how you lost or how you won and how you are going to win next time or how you are going to focus on winning. This is how you become the racer on the track that you want to be.

You should be able to keep your cool at high speeds and not be scared if you get scared then this isn’t the sport or race for you. So you might want to get out of the race before you crash the car and have a really bad day.

Kawasaki Ninja ZX 250

Ninja ZX 250 99% Pasti Hadir

Jika tidak ada aral melintang hampir dipastikan bahwa Kawasaki Ninja ZX 250 akan hadir di tanah air. Bahkan santer beredar berita bahwa konsumen sudah bisa inden di dealer resmi Kawasaki di Indonesia (butuh konfirmasi*) Disamping itu menurut beberapa sumber dari importir umum harga Kawasaki Ninja ZX 250 ini kurang lebih berkisar antara 34-36 juta rupiah dengan spesifikasi dan kualitas produksi yang sama persis dengan standard motor Kawasaki untuk pasar Jepang dan Eropa.

Harganya 35 juta rupiah ? hmm …

Diprediksi harga Kawasaki Ninja ZX 250 adalah antara 34-36 juta rupiah. Tidak jauh dari prediksi INDOBIKERS yaitu 32 juta rupiah. Mudah mudahan harga tersebut akan menurun bila Ninja ZX 250 sudah di produksi di Indonesia dalam kata lain bukan CBU. Mungkin yang paling terancam adalah Honda CBR 150 dan Kawasaki ZX 150. Disamping harganya sama namun kualitas dan performa ZX 250 jauh diatas kedua motor tersebut. Apalagi harga motor tersebut tidak jauh berbeda. Jika Kawasaki mampu menghadirkan Ninja ZX 250 pada tahun depan bisa dipastikan Kawasaki Indonesia merupakan ATPM tanpa saingan di segmen motor sport kelas menengah.

Produk Terbaru : Honda Varadero 125 … Masuk !

kepasar Eropa maksudnya

Sejenak melupakan AHM dan kembali ke Honda Jepang

Sementara ini kita lupakan sejenak gonjang ganjing mengenai Astra Honda Motor. Kita menuju timur jauh untuk melihat produk Honda yang sesungguhnya. Produk honda yang satu ini ditujukan untuk pasar Eropa dan juga Jepang. Motor ini bisa dibilang sangat wah, baik dari segi performa maupun fitur yang ditawarkan. Yang pasti motor seperti ini cocok buat orang indonesia

Honda Varadero 125, Adik kandung dari Varadero 1000

Mungkin di Indonesia terbilang jarang bagi para bikers, saia sendiri belum pernah melihat Honda Varadero di jakarta. Sekilas Honda Varadero adalah SUV nya motor. Yaitu motor yang bisa digunakan sebagai kendaraan komuter tetapi mampu juga dipakai untuk melahap perjalanan jarak jauh maupun medan yang lumayan berat. Seperti juga Yamaha YZF 125R yang merupakan miniatur dari Yamaha R6. Honda Varadero 125 merupakan adik kandung dari Honda Varadero 1000, sebuah motor all round kelas berat yang bisa dibilang mendekati sempurna.

Biar cuma 125cc tetapi bermesin V-Twin lho !

Ini hebatnya Honda, mereka tetap jor-joran terhadap produk kelas ringanya. Ternyata kesamaan Honda Varadero 125 terhadap abangnya yang berkapasitas 1000 cc tidak sebatas pada penampilan luarnya. Konvigurasi mesin V-twin juga terdapat pada Varadero 125cc ini. Sehingga meski hanya 125cc motor ini mampu menghasilkan tenaga sebesar 16hp pada 9.000 rpm, torsinya pun terbilang lumayan hebat yaitu 10nm pada 8.000 rpm. Hal ini tidak lepas dari “jasa” sistem injeksi Honda yaitu PGM-FI electronic injection. Dengan bobot lumayan berat yaitu 152kg Varadero mampu melaju secara konstan pada kecepatan 117km/jam dengan kecepatan maksimum 140 km/jam. Untuk urusan konsumsi bisa diacungi jempol karena dalam penggunaan harian motor ini hanya membutuhkan 1 liter untuk menepuh jarak 23 km. Walau demikian tangki Varadero 125 tetap mampu menampung sebanyak 16,8 liter bensin.

Fitur dan Deskripsi Varadero 125

Varadero 125 hanya 15% lebih kecil dibandingkan Varadero 1000cc. Memiliki mesin berkonvigurasi V-Twin dengan tenga maximum 16hp dan torsi 10nm. Top speednya diklaim 140km/jam dengan didukung suspensi belakang unitrak dan rem cakram hidraulis depan-belakang. Dashboardnya dilengkapi on board computer. Starter elektrik plus kenalpot berkonvidurasi 2-1-2 menjadi fitur standar.
