just hours from the official practice at sentul (27th May 2011 11am and 3pm), i landed 11:30pm... indra picked me up from the airport and we head to KFC near his place...

my E30 was brought to the meeting place, to be tested by me... i tested it and i loved what i drove! felt so wild and alive... plenty of grunt across the rev range, power output also is a big plus... KW suspension setup is not final but more than my old MUZE re-valved and hardened strut with SACH spring
and afterward, at around 3am indra wanted to do few final test drive to see how the car was, im seating on a passenger seat. a motorbike out of nowhere cut us off and we hit the barrier fence and the car was tipped on its side... we rocked the car back on its feet from inside the car hahahaha
i tap his head and said, "don't worry.... lets fix this car now... we can still make it... at least 3pm practice if we miss the 11am one"
now inspecting the damage:
the oil pan cracked due to the impact with the kerb... indra has a spare
front panel damaged and oil cooler is bent but not leaking, luckily...
left front guard is damaged due to the roll, the car was rested on a fence pole on this side...
this side took the first impact... the wheel is slightly bent and the fender was scraped...
the lower control arm is bent the steering rod too, the wheel moved back few cm scrubbing the wheel arch
swaybar mount ripped off too... i found the whiteline front swaybar bushing about 20 meters from the impact place...
we rushed the car back to one of his bodywork shed to be fixed... with only hours to the practice time and we still have to go to Gallery Ban to do the tyre fitting and wheel alignment...
