evoMR79 SG Was wondering where are the roads suitable to test cars? Preferably one with relatively light traffic, with good road condition and most importantly, safe from TP. LCK area was good till the TP starting patroling that area regularly.
saab95 SG No place is safe from the TP. GO NORTH, fines are cheap and no demerit points. U should be able to see the max speed ur ride can achieve.....to me this is more interesting than 0-100 km/hr timings. Also the all important mid-range acceleration tests can be conducted.....i.e from 110km/hr to 200km/hr then on to 220km/hr and then whatever your car can reach flat out.......all these can only be done up North without fear of losing liscense.
no_speeding SG last week new paper juz report a motorist got 8 summons on one trip up north to KL... for ur consideration... Errrm...juz a thought, if we have to find a place 'safe' to utilize the performance bracket mentioned, what difference would it make if we dun try it at all?!
saab95 SG Actually for us more seasoned drivers, we have already mapped out the location of the spycams These are unmanned and mounted under the bridge.....one trip, I deliberately drove slowly all the way just to check which bridges have such a mounting Key these locations into the GPS. For the spot checks, there are a few regular hotspots, the lazy bums do not venture far from their favourite haunts. 8 tickets if because he is a green horn......if u want to utilise the performance bracket of a high performance vehicle, u have got to pay school fees sometimes
evoMR79 SG Straights good for acceleration timing... the corners good to test car handling.. any suggestions?
[email protected] SG well i stay west, so i usually use the area around west coast mac n fong seng. its a short drive to 99, and there are several stretches wide, long n straight. u can hit 160 there b4 u do the U turns linking both directions.

Kel^83 SG old tamp road.... i every morning also drive thru thr de.... so far onli saw tp there twice nia...
Joshua1975 SG try go up Kent Ridge Pk using Vigilante Rd along South Buona Vista Rd, more for testing the gears.
Joshua1975 SG yes 99 turns that what ppl call it, but it oni abt 30 odd turns... haha, always lost count...
Joshua1975 SG old upper thomson rd. but look out for monkeys... lots of monkeys. used to be the oni race track in Singapore...
Mr. Black SG The best if you want to test your car at 2nd link... I test my car there but aware when you just hit 160km/ph there will be another car try to over take you...hehe
