Yup. Last I went was i dunno which holiday but damn jammed at Karak toll, I decided to use old road, who knew there was so many users also (about 5 of us cars) and the rest lorries.

It was fun following a Perdana (i think) and another VTEC City, slowly cruising up

Since we're talking about trunk roads...

Top tip - If you're going to cameron, don't bother going via simpang pulai

use old road at tapah thumbup.gif

It was very cloudy at Genting Highlands today.
Visibility was bad and it was windy too.
Had to drive very slow near the mountain top.
