Starting second on the grid is car number 16 of Tun Chun Racing team in Class 2. Driver Rhommell S. and Ian Lee is not strangers to racing with both having racing in the past.


But being the only two driver team means it’s going to be a bigger challenge physically for them to complete the 182 lap race.

“Yes we basically knew it’s not going to be easy but we thought since we love racing then let’s just go with it and have fun,” explained Lee.

On second row, third place is Class 2 team HPC Kegani 36. “We were hoping to start in second place so this means restrategising our starting procedure,” explained Kenny Lee.

“Earlier in the day we had some cooling issues which was never there before in previous races that we had entered with the car, it might be the hotter weather these days so we installed a bigger oil cooler and hopefully that will solve it.
