ONE DAY ON LPT

I was speeding along the LPT at 130-140 km/h. I knew that I was driving above and over the allowed speed limit of 110 km/h. But I just could not help it. That was the first time I drove my E200 Kompressor on a highway.

I could feel the power. Going 140km/hr felt nothing, just like doing 120 in my Citra (sorry Citra, I didn't mean to belittle you).

Then out of nowhere a nondescript car came behind me, ever so close. I glanced through the side mirror and guessed that it must be either a Lancer or something very fast.

It hogged me for a few more kilometres down the highway. I lost my cool and decided to let it pass.

It passed me and I was flabbergasted, to say the least, that it was just an old Wira with all the modifications!

I drove on towards Karak. I passed one C200K. Then, believe it or not, a Proton Saga (the first edition)drove fast behind the two of us. With a foot hard on the gas pedal the driver overtook the two of us like no man's business.

It hurtled in front leaving us perplexed. How could such a car speeding like that?

By the way the driver was driving with a baby sitting in the front seat. Oh what a super cool chum. I wonder what engine the car was using now. I was sure it could not be the old Proton Saga's own engine!

Wait till you are overtaken by a Kancil with a turbo LS engine which could do probably 180km per hour! There are crazy dare devils on the highways, not so many on the Pantai Timur side but the north south expressway!
