The local automotive community once again gather at the iconic Sepang International Circuit as PEDAL2METAL TRACKDAY by OKL takes place on 14 February 2026.
Designed as an affordable and community-driven initiative, the event offers enthusiasts the opportunity to experience driving on a world-class Formula 1 grade circuit at a competitive rate of RM199 per hour. The initiative continues to support grassroots motorsport culture by making track access more accessible to everyday drivers.
Structured Late-Afternoon Sessions
The event will be divided into two one-hour sessions:
- Session 1: 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM
- Session 2: 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM
By scheduling the sessions in the late afternoon, participants can enjoy cooler track temperatures and more comfortable driving conditions. This timing is particularly beneficial for first-time drivers while still providing an engaging environment for experienced track enthusiasts.
Open to All Car Categories
Organised by Uncle Shahrim under the OKL banner, PEDAL2METAL TRACKDAY adopts an inclusive concept. Participation is open to:
- Standard factory-spec vehicles
- Modified street builds

As long as vehicles comply with the safety requirements set by both the organisers and Sepang circuit regulations, drivers are welcome to join.
This open-entry approach reinforces the event’s core objective, to unite the automotive community and provide equal opportunities for enthusiasts to experience professional-grade track driving in a safe and controlled setting.
A Platform for Performance Testing and Driver Development
Beyond the excitement of driving on track, PEDAL2METAL serves as a practical testing ground for both machines and drivers. Participants can utilise the session to:
- Test engine and braking performance
- Evaluate suspension tuning and setup
- Assess handling characteristics under high-speed conditions
- Refine driving techniques in a controlled motorsport environment
Conducting performance driving at a dedicated circuit such as Sepang provides a far safer and more responsible alternative to public roads, encouraging proper motorsport discipline while preserving public safety.
