Subic

Flashmn · 04-12-2006, 07:02 AM

Thought so, looked familiar. Tho I never drove the long route.

VooDoo · 04-12-2006, 03:01 PM

we actually use the short course. the long course was too scary.

Flashmn · 04-12-2006, 03:32 PM

HEhe the track wasnt scary, the drive there was... I think we were topping at 195kph on the NLEX dodging the potholes and doing slalom around busses, trucks and SUV's.
Then the smaller roads from san fernando and papangas (something named that) we were hitting 160+ overtaking people only to swerve back in when we saw the oncoming cars flashing at us.

only in the philippines.... hell I broke every traffic law and common sense there was over there.

Its also fun doing 160+ in villamor airbase in Makati, when theres a 40kph speedlimit.Bwahaha, insane d00d. That was when I was young and crazy... now I'm not young anymore.

Flashmm, NLEX have been rebuilt already...now its easy doing 200kph. and running away with the PNCC police hahahahaah

Now the road pampanga to subic is the real challenge. overtaking bus and dodging incoming traffic!!! its a blast!!!! if you want some adrenaline rush!

ONLY IN THE PHILS.!!!!! hahahahaha

VooDoo · 04-13-2006, 03:11 AM

the trackk has also been rebuilt since then... there track is still a bit dusty due to a nearby road construction. the long track is scary because after the long flat out straight (around 150-160kph) after the hair pin is a dusty 2nd gear S-S...

i totally agree.. i was surprised how nice the road surface is at North Diversion Road (is it called that?) from Balintawak to Sta.Maria/Bocaue exit was nice and wide. that whole stretch owns the road here in Toronto.

Flashmn.. just in case you don't know, Philippines are very well known to Pro Rally drivers.. that's where they practise, if you can dodge an incoming bus at more than 130km/h then WRC is nothing. hahahaha!

I thought it was Laguna Seca at first
