With all the recalls TOYOTA are issuing because of the accelerator pedals and the breaking system faults. I just found this too funny.

The end has finally dawned, and GulfRun 5 at the Bahrain International Circuit was over. I think everyone who participated or went to the event enjoyed it, as there was all out safe action and surprises down the way.  Last night was the closing ceremony in Lenotre, and GulfRun with their sponsors, handed out the timings of all the drivers and events and their awards.

Gulf Run 5: Day 3

Yesterday was the third and final day of the GulfRun. The whole day was drag racing only. The disappointing thing is that not all the cars participated in the event, but it was still a lot of un. Took some cool pictures.

All good things must come to an end. Thank you GulfRun you were wonderful.

Taking The Caterham For A Ride

T.Pain took me for a 5 min drive in the Caterham today here at the Bahrain GP Circuit. The car is amazing in cornering and has great acceleration, I really loved it.

Thanks T.Pain

Lamborghini Doughnuts

This is the video I promised you of the Lamborghini Murcielago doing some doughnuts at the GulfRun 5 in Bahrain’s Drift Course.

Gulf Run 5: Day 2

Today was a really good day, the weather was a bit hot but very pleasant in the shade. All drivers participated in the full track, and also we saw some compete in the drifting competition that somehow transformed into a doughnut competition.

I also got to jump in a BMW M5 (above) and a Caterham (below) and be driven around the track.

Tomorrow, Day 3:

The drag race and the conclusion of the GulfRun 5 event. Practice should start by 9:30AM and then the elimination rounds. Should be fun.

will upload some videos shortly.

Thanks to both AAA Jr. and T.Pain for the rides.

Today was the first day in the Gulf Run 5 event, there was a very good turn up. we saw a lot of people that we knew there. we also saw a lot of bloggers.

We saw a lot of beautiful and exotic cars there as expected.

This was just the first day, and I took almost 400+ pictures, will filter and upload them when I get back.

Tomorrow: Day 2

All cars will have a go at the full track tomorrow. We might also see some drag racing too.

Parking in A Narrow Garage

This guy has 6 centimeters to spare in the width of his garage. Its a very clever way to manage the little space you have.

I didn’t see that coming.

And some people do this here in Kuwait

The Jeep Orchestra

The sounds in this video are ACTUAL sounds from the Jeep. Everyone began rehearsing their parts 2 weeks before we shot the video. It took us 7 hours of filming to get a solid take.

You can actually buy the ringtone here
