Bad weekend

Spent Friday and Saturday at Sepang and this is the takeaway.

First lesson: the ugly Singaporean is alive and well. In fact their numbers are larger than ever, and are not just plaguing the North South highway, they're now populating SIC as well.

Two examples:
1) Black M3 cab... I'm sorry dude, but you have to yield to traffic that's faster than you. There was plenty of time for you to move aside, but you had to make me overtake at T3, on the outside. Overtaking me on the inside of T9 on my cooldown was just not cool, and for your own health, don't let the red mist get to you. It's just not physically possible to brake beyond the 100m mark from 180 km/h and still make the turn at T15 for a heavy car such as yours.

2) Mr GTA... nice try at blocking me at various turns. FYI... going very wide at T5, if I didn't go off throttle to let you back in, you would've been toast cos there's no way a street car that deep and off the line can get back in line for T6.

Second lesson:
It is easy to judge a person's character by the kind of statements he makes. The following conversation was a weak attempt by a lamer to extract more information from me about an accident on Sepang the day prior.

Lamer: "I saw XXX's car in ABC garage. Wahhh.... quite bad."
Me: "Really? What time did you see it?"
Lamer: "Yesterday, around 5 to 6 pm"
Me: "... I'll be sure to convey your well-wishes to the owner"

What makes this person particularly lame is that the owner of the car involved in the accident actually helped him out by selling him a bumper when said lamer himself was involved in another accident just last month.

And whatever happened to basic human decency like asking about the condition of the driver?

Not only that, what he said is an insult to anyone of intelligence. I left Sepang at 2.30 pm and the tow truck hadn't even arrived. I only managed to get into KL city itself at 5 pm, a distance of about 120 km. If the tow truck can ferry the accident car a distance of 360 km, clear customs and still have enough time to make it up a hoist by 6 pm, DHL, UPS, FedEx, whatever parcel service can stop operations and hire the tow truck driver or at least offer to buy up his tow truck.
