BMW M2 Competition Genting Hill Climb With Thomas Yap / A Day to Remember / YS Khong Driving

[@ThomasYap]

It was such a fun drive Uncle watching you take the lines and wiggling the tail on the way up. It's a day I'll not forget and I'm glad that you liked the M2C!

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thank you again Thomas!

[@derrickjeshurun]

Great video collab with Thomas, Uncle YS!! It’s amazing. Just watched from Thomas’s channel as well, both yours & his video were very enjoyable to watch. Nice one Uncle YS!! 😊👍🏼

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thanks Derrick.

[@wy5432]

Uncle, I haven’t been watching your videos for a while (due to being busy at work). Fantastic video and I must say your commentary is getting better.. keep it up. Your driving skills are as sharp as ever and it looks like the Spyder is finding it hard to catch up.. 😊

[@harvard_lee]

This drive is full of suspense! Thanks Thomas for letting uncle drive the car.

[@kindface]

From 14:35 onwards, uncle’s smile starting extending from ear to ear. Felt like i got a driving lesson from just watching you burn the rubber.

[@vijayjay358]

Yap and Thomas both of you guys like top gun maverick...really nice guys

[@amirulfarisismail5523]

Padu lh uncle tak bosan tengok dari awal smpai habis. Kena tinggal belakang porsche tu😂

[@NathanKoek]

traction control light flickering all the way up hahhahah. Awesome drive uncle!

[@kidmeisterz]

Uncle YS, with all this frequent driving up Genting, I bet you could almost do it with your eyes closed! :D

[@xccude]

Greetings from Perth Australia. Loving the genting runs! Wish I could do it there with my C63. Any chance you'd be able to do a tips/tricks on how to drive spiritedly while being safe, for example how to take corners, when to brake, downshift, decision making when to pass a car and when not to etc. That would be a great video! 😊😊😊😊

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hi Jonathan, thanks for supporting our little channel - you will note from this video I am very careful around traffic, and drive very defensively. Being defensive at all times is very important, and when it is safe, I can drive a little faster. At all times I keep a little in reserve. As for driving techniques, we plan to do a series of driving lessons, perhaps next year, so stay tuned.

[@bondmcnugget]

Dude, there are defensdriving courses in Perth, go do them.

Great video, really enjoyed watching it!

Agile little car. Seems like a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing, uncle.

[@dillanmistry]

Brilliant driving

[@tankwonghoe9154]

This is the second time I see Uncle YS in serious ruthless face and went silent. The first time was when he brought the M340i up the mountain. Awesome driving skills!!!!!! I was observing the side mirror, didn't see any Syder coming, must be about 8seconds or 3 corners or so behind Uncle!!!!!

[@YSKhongDriving]

The Spyder was camera car, btw. It was not a race, so don't get the wrong idea.😅

[@tankwonghoe9154]

If it is a race, the camera car would have recorded nothing haha, just empty road ahead of him.

[@shauntan2266]

Awesome driving. Kudos to both of you 👍👍👍

[@hondaciviccoupe]

Awesome drive in the M2! 👍

[@jinhaochin8045]

Unce, wish to see you drive m4 going up hill

[@kid321able]

Great Driving !

[@limpei94]

Hi Uncle YS how was if it were to compare with m4 competition ?

[@YSKhongDriving]

I really don't know, but it would be interesting to find out.

[@limpei94]

@@YSKhongDriving any uncle's viewer here on youtube. You heard uncle, get your m4 competition ready for Uncle YS here for some content and comparison 😇

[@chasew.l.5808]

May I ask how did you manage to get such stable shot from the main camera (over the shoulder view)? Is it a tripod locked in place at the backseat?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes I used a tripod.

[@PosPsycho88]

A happy and contended Uncle Khong

[@taichizi]

Uncle YS, after driving this stock M2CS, could you share your thoughts on how practical it is as a daily car?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Your wife can take it to market. It is an easy car to drive.

[@taichizi]

@@YSKhongDriving suspension firm and not hard, ya?

[@ThomasYap]

@@taichizi I daily this car. It's on the firm side and very communicative. Some people may not like that you can feel the road that much. But personally I think its firm without being crashy and harsh

[@taichizi]

@@ThomasYap hi Thomas, great car for zooming around. I appreciate a firm suspension for cornering but my butt and back can’t take too harsh & crushing ride. Old Liao… hopefully there’s a chance to butt test your ride in future.

[@dineisharvin7747]

Js watched thomas video....uncle ur great 🙏

[@greyoffice]

Uncle, which one you like more driving up genting, M2 Competition or M340i?

[@YSKhongDriving]

M2C of course.

[@vtec70]

Uncle YS, between GR Supra and M2, which is better handling and more fun to drive?

[@YSKhongDriving]

M2 is more fun, and is more powerful.

[@vtec70]

@@YSKhongDriving Thanks uncle YS.

[@bjj-vl2ut]

WHICH IS MORE FUN? GR YARIS OR THIS? MORE FASTER?

[@YSKhongDriving]

They are two different cars, and behave differently. The M2C is rear wheel drive and has loads more power. The GR Yaris has less, but is very agile due to the AWD system, and is also a lot lighter. In the wet, the GR Yaris would be far ahead, but ob a dry track the M2C would just walk away from the GR Yaris. Of course a lot depends on the driver skills.

[@bjj-vl2ut]

@@YSKhongDriving IS THAT MEAN GR YARIS IS BETTER HANDLING CAR??

[@GR-bt2jn]

Did these M2 got manual transmission?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Not the ones here.

[@paulliin]

When u run dct off full sport mode u see the true beast jailess

[@bag2963]

Nice car, what do you think about E39 530i as a first car in Europe? Could that engine be tunable? Either N/A or with a moderate turbo boost.

[@YSKhongDriving]

The 530i is a nice car. I have driven one before. However, in Europe, it would be better to buy an M car, either new or second hand. Over here, the import duties are very high so the cars are quite rare. Used ones in Europe should be more affordable, and there are so many choices. I would go for a smaller car, like a 335i, or a 330i. More fun than a 5 series.

[@bag2963]

@@YSKhongDriving I agree, but I mean specifically E39, because is not that big, nice power and engine, parts are easily found, easily fixable, the best looking BMW sedan in my opinion and they are relatively cheap still($2000-$6000 depends on the condition), prices are rising up too, it also might be a good investment. I mean 230HP is good, but this car is relatively heavy, that's why I mentioned some tuning, nothing too much.

[@KonWaiLuen]

I own an E39 525i, but since you're in Europe where road tax is not displacement based, 530i is the minimum you should go for.

[@bag2963]

@@KonWaiLuen thank you.

[@HasbullahSyarah]

I wonder what Thomas feels 😂

[@YSKhongDriving]

Ask him, but I think he feels good.

[@koksionglee7978]

Uncle, just as you are about to take that exit to Genting Highland, you put on your indicator lights! That's a no-no. When operating a BMW, you cannot use signal, it's against procedures!

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha.

[@koksionglee7978]

😂 enjoyed your videos very much uncle, thanks for broadening the horizon of the automotive industry locally!

RWD

[@veialyyad4816]

I didn't know that M2 comp had the M4 engine I did buy the normal M2 but still a fun one

[@qna95B]

original M2 can be tuned easily to be at least 450hp, and sound better best of both worlds

[@jms710]

nice drive uncle , loving the M2 even more

tires arent squealing as much, only means 1 of 2 things. Uncle is giving chance. or uncle haven't ate breakfast yet. No energy.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, being careful with a very expensive car. Waking up extremely early also perhaps had something to do with it. We always have to leep something in reserve, amd that was the first time I was frivi g the M2C, after a 3 lap stint in the launch car in SIC about 3 years ago.
