Souq Al-Mubarkiya – سوق المباركية

Yesterday i took my random yearly trip to Souq Al-Mubarkiya, one of the most historic places in Kuwait. I wasnt looking for anything, just a little walk around since the weather was nice and there wasnt much to do last night. It was nice to see some foreigners (europeans/americans) walking around and enjoying a taste of our history. I took some quick snaps of random things with my phone which you can find below…

I saw this canon-like Courvoisier Cognac bottle in a random store with lots of old and vintage stuff. I regretted not buying later actually because it does look pretty cool. I also found some really old wind up record players that still work which was also interesting. Click below to see the rest of the pictures. Continue Reading

Gulf Run 5 Teaser – Exclusive

With Gulf Run 5 right around the corner, at Up Till One we have got our hands on an exclusive teaser.  The event will begin on the 15th and 16th of January in 360 Mall with a car show. All the cars taking part will be on display and it is open to the public. Exotic, tuned up and stock cars will all be available for everyone to see.

Maybe many of you have heard of rumours surrounding this years event. And this teaser just adds fuel to the fire!

Rumour number 1 : Gulf Run 5 has become a 3 day event this year, a day extra from what was being marketed earlier. Credibility of rumour ? As you can see from the dates in the teaser clip, it seems it has been prolonged by one day. Let’s just wait and see!

Rumour number 2 : Gulf Run 5 will include a drift course this year.  Believe it or not, Gulf Run 5 is being rumoured to be giving “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift” a run for their money with this brand new event in their schedule. Credibility of rumour ? Let’s just wait and see…..

There will be only 50 drivers participating in the event due to safety measures, but thanks to the Gulf Run staff, they have made the entrance for spectators easy, and they are more than welcome to the event.

Expect everything from a Honda CRX to a KTM Xbow, and everything in between at this years event. It is being hyped as an event that cannot be missed by anyone, let alone car enthusiasts.

For any questions you can go to their website at www.thegulfrun.com or send emails here to us at www.uptill1.com and we will be more than happy to relay your msgs and concerns.

thanks to the guys at GulfRun and Zdistrict.

Stay tuned for new news and updates from the Gulf Run as we will try and be the first to break the news.

UPDATE : This video, like the ones before, was made by NegativEffect, they are doing a great job for amateurs just having fun with cars and cameras. Keep up the great work and waiting for your newest video.

Hexatech F1 Simulator

I saw this at a blog i have been reading for a while, Eleventh-St, and i think it is the car enthusiasts answer to microsoft’s flight simulator. Its worth £120,000 and will use either three 42 inch screens or stereo projectors. Among other things, it will recreate the g-forces felt in a real f1 car as accurately as possible. It is being marketed as not being a video game, i beg to differ. Maybe our friends at Gulfrun can make it part of their event for the future. Thanks Eleventh-St.
