blogentry-133713-0-33896100-1435671792_thumb.pngHere are some highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed. Cars which performed included, a Baja Truck, a two-wheeling Juke Nismo and a mad Nascar.

 

Our favourite is the Baja 1000 truck where it pleased the crowds with its tail-out antics. The spongy springs add to the spectacle. Patrick Friesacher's Toyota Camry NASCAR burnout was pretty entertaining too when his car caught fire. It was more of a smokeout than a burnout to us! Jean Ragnotti doing perfect 360 degree spins in his Renault 5 Maxi Turbo wasn't too shabby too!

 

A new Guinness world record was also set for the fastest time over 1 mile(1.6km) on two wheels. Completed in 2 minutes 10 seconds, Terry Grant drove a Nissan Juke RS Nismo up the hill on two wheels and smashed the previous record of 2 minutes and 45 seconds. When he went up the ramp, it did look like he nearly it lost it!

  • Tennis: Beautiful game that doesn't know how to count

    Wimbledon just concluded yesterday (congrats Sinner!), and it's a reminder of how much I enjoy tennis as a sport. I used to play it some (wasn't particularly good), and still tangentially follow it nowadays (the Roland Garros final this year between Alcaraz and Sinner is an all-time classic).  There's something intrinsically mesmerising about the sport, I think even for spectators who have never picked up a racquet. At first glance, it may seem like just two people (or four, but doubles is

    How are we already in June?

    During lunch with my mother a couple of weeks back over yong tau foo, I was asked about my opinion on the latest NDP song. And of course, as expected of any chronically insular millennial, my reaction was: “Huh? There’s a new NDP song?” But of course there is. And I say this not to disparage the wonderful songwriters and musicians that provide an anthem to remember the nation’s birthday by annually, but to knock into my own mind the harsh reality: We’re already in mid-June.  It fe

    In a hyper-connected world, your physical presence is more important than ever

    The advent of apps and the Internet have revolutionised our ability to connect instantaneously. From social media to video calls to messaging apps, our capacity for real-time communication is unprecedented. However, it seems that the more hyperconnected we are online, the further apart we're growing in real life. Experts' Consensus Doctors, scientists, and specialists have all reached the same conclusion: Staring at our devices causes us to drift further apart – a trend I've obser

    23 years on, Infernal Affairs remains the best gangster movie I've watched

    TL;DR It's over two decades old, but Infernal Affairs remains THE gangster trilogy. *SPOILERS AHEAD* *SPOILERS AHEAD* *SPOILERS AHEAD* The Hong Kong Police and a triad have placed moles in each other's ranks. Tony Leung is Chan Wing Yan, an undercover cop desperate to leave his assignment. The antagonist is Senior Inspector Lau Kin Ming (Andy Lau), a decorated policeman who is actually a mole for Hon Sam (Eric Tsang), a triad boss. It's a game of cat-and-mouse, with poli
