If you have a fast car, like to drive like a maniac and have a load of cash waiting in your bank account, this is the ideal present to get yourself! There's a catch though, this is only in the USA.

 

 

In the land where 'freedom' is a word that is second to none, lies a racetrack for the adrenaline junkie! Honda's former proving ground is up for sale in Cantil, California and its the ultimate playground for a petrolhead, whether you're a biker or a driver, there's something for everyone. Just imagine how awesome it would be to own one of these.. 4,255 acres to yourself with specially designed tracks both for cars and bikes, a 7.5 mile oval and a 4.5 mile handling track which i guess involves lots of bends. It was designed mainly to replicate North American public roads so the surfaces range from tarmac to gravel to desert sand. It even has its own fuel tanks as part of the facilities!

The owner, CB Richard Ellis, is selling the facility but he is recommending that the site be turned into a huge solar power plant. What a waste..

  • Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven

    Forget resolutions, just focus on starting fresh

    The start of a new year is always a happy time for me. Apart from gatherings and mini reunions, January is when I reflect on everything I've accomplished last year, while mentally noting the things I still need to work on. Resolutions, though, are not for me. While it's not wrong to list some and strive towards them like goals, I think making resolutions is not the optimal way for me to reach new milestones, because more often than not, they're declared 'in the moment'. Or worse, after you'

    Journey to the West: First Steps in Southwestern China, Pt. 2

    Note: Click here to read Pt. 1, where the journey began in Hong Kong. NEXT UP: CHONGQING Day 3, cont.: Dad had decided on the scenic route to Chongqing - train. We did not realise that the immigration process at the Hong Kong Kowloon West station involved both the Hong Kong and Chinese authorities, so we found ourselves in a rush to board the train (we boarded minutes before the scheduled departure). Through the eight-hour journey, the passing sights made me realise the diversity

    The Music that Shaped Me, Pt. 1

    Some of my colleagues will know that I make electronic music outside of work and school. A stark contrast from the impression I give off (several people throughout my teenage years told me I seemed more like a classical guy). Truth be told, I wasn’t always into music. Growing up in an average Singaporean Chinese household, my main sources were either the sporadic exposure to radio stations, or more frequently the theme songs of whatever was playing on KidsCentral/Okto (RIP free-to-air kids
