"This is really unexpected. I know we would have high chances of being in the top 3 given our performance during the first round of the race, but I never thought we would win the champion title," said Ahmad Rizam, President of TOC Go-Kart Club, who is also the team principal for TOC Go-Karters.

"The reason we won was due to the fact that we strategised, and our strategy worked! As each team gets a chance to change driver during the endurance race, we did some calculations and through that we determine the best lap to come to the pit for the driver's change. We were right!" said Muhammad Saufi, manager of the team.

TOC Students Spotted at F1 2010

2010 Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix was a hit among our students who went there to help out last weekend. About 80 TOC students signed up for this phenomenal event and they were not disappointed as they watched the whole race LIVE!


These students were divided into groups and assigned to different stations throughout the whole Sepang International Circuit for various duties. Some were in charge of the ticketing areas, some were the information specialists at the F1 village and some were the usherers.

10 lucky students were picked to be stationed at the pit, and they were excited as they got very close to the drivers and the racing teams. Moreover, 4 out of the 10 students even got the chance to set foot on the race track!

TOC Students Gets Exposure In The Fun Karting World

For The Otomotif College (TOC) students Ahmad Anwarizam or Rizam, Muhammad Saufi and Muhammad Rushdi, they have one thing in common - their passion and interest for the motorsport industry, especially the karting world.

Being the active committee members of TOC's Go-Kart Club, the trio were delighted when they were presented with the opportunity to help out IRU1 Racing Team, an upcoming go-kart team, at the first race of PLUS Yamaha SL Cup (Malaysian series) held at Sepang International Go-Kart Circuit recently.

Rizam, President of TOC's Go-Kart Club, said that he was excited when informed of this unique chance. "When the college told me about this opportunity, I said yes immediately as I know this is something that does not come by easily. I know I can gain a lot of experiences when working for a real go-kart racing team, and that would help me in running the college's go-kart club."
"Seeing how a real racing team works gave me and my team mates more insight on how and what to prepare for a real race, and we benefited from this as we ourselves participate in races as well," he said.
