Oh great, here comes "Sinking of Japan"

No, I'm not referring to some Japanese disaster movie called "Sinking of Japan" or "Japan Sinks", this is how "Japan Sinks" gotten real since I noticed the news that Japan was struck by a 8.8 magnitude earthquake and tsunami in Japan! Oh my gosh, this is how the anime Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 gets real. (--------_____--------)

Check out the articles:

My gosh, I hope everyone in Japan are OK, especially the Filipinos reside in this earthquake-struck country. Uhhh.....

I hope nothing's wrong to the Land of the Rising Sun, otherwise, it may end up like in the movie The Sinking of Japan.

Tested by the Performance Points regulation

Ford GT40 Race Car in Monza

Since the "special" World Classic Car Series was here on the Seasonal Events section that lasts from 3/2/2011 19:00 EST to 3/16/2011 19:00 EST, I've checked it out for a while and unlike the past Seasonal Events that requires a right car with the right drivetrain but no tuning restrictions, I've been tested by the Performance Points regulation.

When I checked the Entry Requirements, not only I have to use cars from 1969 or earlier, the PP required is 550 or below. So how can I get a fast car under 550 Performance Points? My car of choice was the 1969 Ford GT40 Race Car, one of the most expensive Standard Tier cars on this game that you can get from either purchasing it at a very high price or win it in a B-Spec Endurance race. In default, this vintage racer has a Performance Points of 570, power output of 482HP, and weighs 998kg.

The problem was I cannot enter this race without the needed regulations so what I do was using the handy "Power Limiter" in the car's tuning section. I dropped the GT40 Race Car's power output to just 400 HP, giving me 547 Performance Points! With the dropped power met the PP regulations, I entered this race and I won all five races from Cape Ring, Laguna Seca, Monza, Tokyo, to the developer-generated Eifel Kart track.

My lesson was to find a car that is somewhat near 550, then use some power limiter to sacrifice power to decrease PP and the required PP should allow you to enter those strict races.

I'm sure most online players applied those strict regulations during online races.

Mommy Dionesia Poohkyaw didn't get her true love...again!

Poor Mommy D!

Episode 2 of Banana Split Daily Serving's Mommy Dionesia in Love was happened earlier! In this episode, Mommy Dionesia Poohkyaw falls in love with someone named Diego. However, their last tango was; Diego was a girl because of the bra. Poor Mommy D! Will Mommy Dionesia Poohkyaw find true love?

Wow! It's a baby!

Another kick-in-our-butts fun and magic with Magic Singh! This time, he shows his magic to some pregnant woman, then someone with a dog showed up and explained why Magic Singh's here. His latest magic pops the pregnant mother's baby out but turns out the dog was inside the pregnant woman! Uh-oh! LOL! HA! HA! HA! HA! A kick-in-a-pants to laugh at Magic Singh!

Ambulance crashed unexpectedly

It's hard for someone like Jinx to be SOBRANG MALAS, especially when the ambulance crashed and the blind date gone ugly. But that's okay.

Art Throb goes hardcore

After that unlikely unluckiness from Jinx, Kuya Art, the Art Throb goes hardcore as he invites the kids to see how to make a "Boat in a Bottle" with the use of bottle, thread, scissors, 11 matchsticks, glue, and silk. Huh, even the kids didn't get it how to make a "Boat in a Bottle" like what the Art Throb do.

Idling Stop variant for the new MR Wagon makes a two-way tie with Daihatsu's TNP27 Move!

2012 Suzuki MR Wagon

With the continuous rise of gas prices and with the "War Zone" getting worse, people are looking for fuel-efficient cars no matter what lifestyles they are, and there is good news for the 2012 Suzuki MR Wagon, launched since January 2011; the X variant of the MR Wagon receives the much awaited "idling stop" system which will make it a two-way tie with the king of gas-misers, the TNP27 Daihatsu Move!

Scoop (Japanese Only):

http://www.carview.co.jp/news/0/142860/

If the latest TNP27 Move has a fuel economy of 27.0km/L (10-15 Mode), the Idling Stop variant for the new MR Wagon can go further for just 27.0km/L (10-15 Mode) thanks to the idling stop system that allows the MR Wagon's R06A engine to automatically shut off when stopped during traffic.

2011 Daihatsu Move Custom

Impressive, now looks like the new MR Wagon with the idling stop function dethrones the Toyota Vitz and the Toyota Vitz dethrones the Nissan March K13, so now the three kings of low fuel consumption are the Toyota Vitz, Suzuki MR Wagon, and the Daihatsu Move, for now...

2011 Toyota Vitz RS

Never see that thing coming, but I have a probability that the TNP27 Move will soon be dethroned by some future Daihatsu based on the e:S concept as seen on the 2009 Tokyo Motor Show, right now we have to make do with the latest Three Kings of TNP such as the Vitz, MR Wagon, and TNP27 Move.

Hyundai Veloster

2012 Hyundai Veloster

The question Korean car enthusiasts ask when they encounter Hyundai's Premium Unique Vehicle, the Veloster, is this: is the Veloster a sports car or a 2-box hatchback?

It isn't a sports car and it isn't a 2-box hatchback. The Hyundai Veloster is a Premium Unique Vehicle created under the "New Thinking, New Possibilities" strategy. Although the Hyundai Veloster was based on the 2007 concept car at the 2007 Seoul Motor Show, the number of doors is the trickiest part of this hot hatch. On the right side view, he/she thinks that the Veloster is a 5-door but on the left side view, it has a 100% chance of thinking that it was a 3-door hatch. The honest fact is the Veloster has four doors; two at the right, one at the left, and one at the rear. An orthodox possibility happened in the first time in world car history.

2012 Hyundai Veloster interior

The interior of the Veloster is somewhat similar to the Hyundai 5G Grandeur and that is because of the Fluidic Sculpture philosophy. One main eccentric part is the engine start-stop switch was placed in the middle and not on the driver side. What an eccentric invention for the best South Korean car maker.

The main engine that powers the eccentric Veloster is the Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) 1.6-litre engine. This engine creates a power output of 140hp/6300rpm and the torque output of 17kg-m/4850rpm. The 6-speed AT variant of the Veloster accumulates the fuel economy of 15.3km/L while the enthusiasts' favorite 6-speed MT variant offers a fuel economy of 16.3km/L. Aside from that, there are lots of conveniences offered on the Veloster such as Side and Curtain Airbags, Tire Pressure Monitoring System, DMB Navigation System, Vehicle Stability Management, Active Eco Assist, USB and iPod connectivity, and Climate Control.

The Veloster comes in 9 authentic exterior colors;
1) Blue Ocean
2) Sun Flower
3) Green Apple
4) White Crystal
5) Sonic Silver
6) Veloster Red
7) Vitamin C
8) Phantom Black
9) Sleek Silver

My thoughts about the Veloster:
The Hyundai Veloster is the most eccentric hatchback I have ever seen in world car history because of its odd number of doors; two in the right side, one in the left, and one in the back. If they offered this in RHD countries, the doors may also be inverted, making it two in the left and one on the right. This odd combo is part of its "Premium Unique Vehicle" status and it targets young drivers who are looking for fun. What an odd-clustered combination of sexy, smart, and coolness.

In South Korea, Hyundai limits the production and sales up to 18,000 Veloster models to keep its premium value. Sales of this eccentric model start tomorrow and soon in other countries, including the United States. I'm afraid that HARI could not bring the Veloster to the Philippines soon because of our country's dirty fuel that can't stand up to the Veloster's GDi engine.

Still, the Veloster is much more of a threat to the Renault Megane Coupe, Honda CR-Z, Citroen DS4, or even the Alfa Romeo Giulietta. Who's up for some party at the Veloster?

Ate Etang read a letter from a kasambahay who doesn't know about idioms

Roses courtesy from Alpha Bert

Earlier on Banana Split Daily Servings, there was another Alpha Bert episode! In this episode, a man visited his girlfriend without presents! His girlfriend got mad at him! Who needs help? Alpha Bert will help him! That day's word is "BOSES", then replace B with a letter R and the word is "ROSES"! The boy gave his girlfriend some roses and apology accepted!

Where's the dining table?

Then, there was another Dear Etang episode, whereas Pokwang, as Ate Etang, read a letter written from a kasambahay who does not know idioms and taking it literally. When her amo said "kakain ako sa labas", she removed the dining table and placed outside. Therefore, she got fired because she doesn't know what does this idiom means and taking it literally. Ate Etang's advice is to understand first what these idioms like "kakain ako sa labas" means. Who knows, when you heard the idiom "break a leg", you could really just break a leg literary. Speaking of which, does Ate Etang's kasambahay cooking a human being?!

Ate Etang freaked out!

F1 and Pirelli don't mix according to S. Vettel

Huh, it seems after Pirelli takes place as the official Formula One partner, only one F1 driver that says he's unfit for new Pirelli F1 tires that all teams will use. This F1 driver is none other than last year's champ, Sebastian Vettel, famed for not just a 2010 F1 Champ, but he made a special appearance on Gran Turismo 5 for the Red Bull X Challenge.

Scoop:

http://www.torquenews.com/109/formula-ones-sebastian-vettel-criticizes-new-pirelli-tires

According to S. Vettel, these new Pirelli F1 tires can lose grip easily. They are good for just 16 or 17 laps and it cost the pit crew 10 seconds.

I guess I understand S. Vettel's point because for him, F1 and Pirelli don't mix. Despite that, the first race is about to start this late March at Australia. Can S. Vettel keep up on this latest challenge? We hope so for Red Bull Racing's young champ.

SWEET! Lexus LFA to be featured in Fast Five!

Lexus LFA

The Lexus LFA, created by Toyota Motor Corporation that is limited to 500 units worldwide, is much more famous since it was featured in XBOX 360's Forza 3 and PS3's Gran Turismo 5! Now, the Lexus LFA is going to be featured on the fifth installment of the Fast and the Furious franchise, called Fast Five, starring Paul Walker and Vin Diesel.

Seen on the latest Fast Five trailer, there was a smoke-colored Lexus LFA on it! Looks like it's making its first big screen debut! Fast Five will be showing in North America this late April!

Bridgestone will be the official tire for Tuason Racing School!

Scoop:

http://www.topgear.com.ph/news/bridgestone-replaces-goodyear-as-tuason-racing-partner

No longer supplying tires for Formula One (replaced by Pirelli) and now the Indianapolis 500 (along with its Firestone subsidiary), now famous for its "Reply All" and "Carma" Super Bowl XLV ads,  Bridgestone still got high hopes for the motor sports community, and now, Tuason Racing School and Bridgestone are now soon partners.

The reason why Tuason Racing School breaking up with Goodyear because they want to move on because of the management changes. For Tuason Racing School, Bridgestone tires are made for circuit, drifting, and kart racing, unlike Goodyear which focuses on drift tires.

MY SIDE NOTE: Looks like Mr. JP Tuason's taking a visit to the Taiya Cafe! Good luck on your new partnership!

The Evo says "Help me", will you help?

Like a good neighbor, the Lancer Evolution is there

Stick together, never torn apart

Guardian angel

Scared from thinking that the Evo may be ended up either dead or evolved into something boring like the Honda CR-Z, some online Evo geeks started an online petition showing that the Evo needs to be saved, not killing it, not turning into something boring, keep the Evo tradition alive.

Called "Mitsubishi, Keep the Evo Alive", this petition found at Causes.com shows how much Evo geeks love the Evo so much, they wish that Mitsubishi should not axe the LanEvo or turn it into something boring.

For those who are Evo supporters, please click on to this link:

COME ON JDM FREAKS! LET'S SHOW THEM HOW MUCH WE LOVE THE EVO SO MUCH, WE DON'T WANT MITSUBISHI TO END IT!

Anong klaseng bag yan?

Ryan Bang, as everyone's favorite inventor Igor Stojokovic Krystic, invented something new on Tekkie Muna from the March 8 episode of Banana Split Daily Servings!

Endlezz Bhag 2011

He invented a bag? Nope, not just any ordinary bag, it's called the ENDLEZZ BHAG 2011! How does the Endlezz Bhag 2011 (jejemonized by the word Endless Bag 2011) work? It's simple; no matter how big or small you have, the Endlezz Bhag 2011 fits them all! You can either put one, or a thousand, or even a hundred thousand items on this kind of bag! Cool! Can humans fit inside the Endless Bhag 2011? Igor Stojokovic Krystic says it does!

Rendered speculation of Manny Pacquiao with his Charice
hairdo, along with Justin Bieber (as seen on Ang TV Patrol)

And by the way, a photo-gagged photo of Manny Pacquiao sporting in Charice's hairdo with Justin Bieber appeared on some report on Banana Split's Ang TV (♪Doo Wa Diddy Diddy Dam Diddy Doo♪) Patrol. Because of some reports that Charice stacked up against Justin Bieber at J-Wave's Tokio Hot 100 Award, Pokwang imagines that Manny Pacquiao's Justin Bieber hairdo is just not fit for him and his next hairdo will end up look like Charice's. Then, a photo appeared with a gagged photo of Pacquiao's Charice hairdo together with Justin Bieber. It was photo-gagged because Pacman's head was replaced from Charice's face, giving it an artist rendition of Pacman's new hairdo that is much better than the Bieber hairdo.

Kuya Art's sand art!

Does anyone made a "Sand Art" like what Kuya Art, the Art Throb, made? I'm sure nobody made that because, nobody made it like what Kuya Art does! In positive terms, I think the Sand Art looks good!
