Double Whammy! Sports Car Club - MercKakis Meets

Text by: Ben Photos by: Ben


If you head over to the Kallang Leisure Park carpark on the last Sunday of the month, you are sure to stumble into at least one car group meet up. This carpark is the rally point for many groups to gather and do the usual catching up, knowledge sharing and everything motorheads do when you put them in a room together.


The last Sunday of February had me head over to Kallang Leisure Park to meet with a couple of friends from the Sports Car Club. As I reached, I scanned the area for a group of people standing by their cars, chatting, and ended up parking with the guys from MercKaki.com.


The MercKakis are a spinoff of the Mercedes forum who decided to keep things simple and casual. They stick to meeting up every now and then and enjoy some fun outings around the island.


While the name clearly addresses Mercedes, the members do not all adorn the three-pointed star on their hood, and some members have moved on from the German brand and are now driving various rides, some sporting a growling feline...


Others a prancing horse...


Or other German crests.


While I was catching up with some long time friends from the MercKakis, the SCC members slowly drove in to assemble quite a crowd. 


The SCC is open to any and all cars, bringing together an eclectic gathering of BMW, Audi, Mercedes...


Daihatsu...

Volvo, VW...


Nissan...


Lambo, and more!


Well you get the idea, you name it, they probably have it!


Operating from their forum, www.sportscarclub.sg, they are a bunch of motorheads who unite regardless of the make or model they drive. 


What this leads to is a pool of people from different walks of life, who modify or not their rides, and who are all gathered around the same passion for all things on wheels.


With both clubs meeting at the same place and mixing up, the carpark became a real motorhead feast, and, as they say that images speak louder than words, I'll let the photos do the talking!









One last thing - where were you on that week end?
