My first experience with WFF was in June. I joined the "Escape The City" event which brought us to club Med Cherating recently. The organiser was WFF and sponsored by PML.
It was good fun and most of the cars went at about 160kmh on some stretches of roads. I must say that the BMW Motorcycle had done a good job in marshalling. Without them, I think, some of the cars could have lost their way, esp in Kuantan.
In all, the whole drive was very much "free-for-all" and you choose your preference of driving. i.e You can choose to speed & meet again at the next stop-point or be remain with the main group who prefer to stick as one group and drives more or less at leisure pace. The latter is I believe "the convoy" which bro SM Yuen referred to, but I'm sure that wasn't intended to be a convoy, but more like travelling together and keeping each other within line-of-sight. That was at least my experience during the Escape the City. When we were at Kuantan heading to Cherating, the organiser arranged for the M'sia traffic police to escort us in a more real-like convoy manner - > the police at the first in the queue, sirens on, all headlights on, on-coming traffic push to roafside, lorries at the front were asked to give way. I guess with the pressence of police everyone refrains from overtaking. anyway, the speed was like 60kmh during the police-led convoy. That was real fun.... all the villagers came out to see what actually happened with all the noises and long queues of big 7s & 5s. hehehehe
You are right. I believe that they do not give out walkie-Talkies to all cars. Anyway, I've already paid up to go for this trip. Hope to see anyone who wish to come along. There is also a couple of BMW drivers who had joined, but I doi not know who they were. If there is any BMW sg event, I more than keen to join. ....mmm ...looks like I have now grown with the interest of going to M'sia after the june event.
