Guys,

My roadster is selected to participate on Malaysian Sepang F1 Drivers parade. I was told that most probably Fernando Alonso will be sitting on my car !! that is a great news , double world champion on my car.... The parade is on 23th March(sunday) 1.30pm malaysian time , so its early monday morning for you guys... IM not sure the parade will aired on TV but sometime they do show it , the race is live telecast , i will take photos of the event.

that's great news!

Most of the F1 coverage we get in the U.S. is on SPEEDTV, and they very rarely broadcast the pre-race activities. I've never seen an F1 pre-show, as a matter of fact.

Have fun! not only is this cool... but that's one of the funnest racetracks to drive..... (granted, it won't be as fun with a body on your car..... but.... one can always dream!)

Oh wow. My dream (well, one of them) is for our little cars to be selected for the driver's parade in Melbourne, and for me to drive Mark Webber around Albert Park Lake (hey, I told you it was a dream!)

Congratulations, and we want pics. Lots of pics.

It was a really hot day at sepang.... it was like a dream come through when Alonso sat on my car... here is some of the pictures... i could not capture a picture of alonso with car coz i could not get out from the car but my freind had captured it and will upload as soon i get it from him..

To all the Ferrari fans ... first of im sorry if it offended any ferrari fans here , im just trying to say what exactly happen during the parade..
i spoke to the person who carried one of the 'ferrari driver' with his dino , that guy was about to shake hand with kimi and that driver just ignored him and just sat like a ROBOT in the car , he is not even bothered to greet the owner of the Ferrari Dino , such an arrogant person , he just dint realise that he is nobody after retiring from F1 . Lewis also dint sign any autograph to merz 250SL owner , im not sure what was wrong there, from what i know lewis is a nice person maybe he is pissed because he was penalised 5 places back ... Many of them bought lots of merchandise and gave to the owners of the ferrari dino and mers 250SL to get F1 drivers autograph... but it dint happen ..

I heard that the new drivers are very friendly... on my case... Alonso was... OK . and he did talk to me and sign my cap , model car , ID tag and dash. but still you can notice abit of arrogance , what you expect... its a Double world champion... anyway i really enjoyed the parade... will never forget this moment and im still totally blur and speechless .

That is incredible! What an honor congratulations! and well done!

I watched the race on Speed this morning and kept looking for your car. How about Masa going off while leading? How much did that cost him I wonder? Hamilton had a good drive except for that 18 second pit stop. Come on now, rednecks turning left can do it faster than that. Shaping up to be a good series this year.

did they show the parade on speedtv ?

The person who took massa said that he is ok and signed 2 of his caps... , David Coulthard dint show up for the parade dont know whats his problem..

more news later , i havent spoke with the organizer yet...
