Going back to the starting line again.

Hmmm… wonder which event company did they engage? The sound tech too engross in the race and babes?

Oh no!!! The Porsche 911 overtaking the Boeing 747!!!

Finally the winner is the Porsche

Overall, I think it’s an awesome race event and a first car versus plane race event I have ever attended.

However, it would be better it the emcee of the race event are either Jeremy Clarkson, James May or Richard Hammond cause the local emcees voice just can’t make it, they just sound too boring.

Prehaps the BBC Top Gear team should have a Top Gear Live show here in Singapore to show the local production crews what a race event should be like. Talking about Top Gear, here a clip of Richard Hammond in a Buggati Veyron racing again a Eurofighter.

After the event, Noel and I went over to Marina Square to meet up with Ann and Drayden as Ann needs to get some stuff from there. After we head over Harvey Norman at Millenia Walk as I have wanted to get Ann her birthday present. Hope she is happy with the HP MiniNote as her birthday present :)… Noel, don’t be jealous, yours is coming soon.

While waiting for the sales person to exchange the HP MiniNote, I took a few shots of Drayden grinning at my camera.
