This comes by way of the motorcycle racing track at the Gong Badak sports complex, which was opened several months ago. Former Setiu district youth council chairman Zokri Othman said the track keeps youths from riding dangerously on the streets, endangering themselves and other users. “Ever since the track was opened, my friends and I often look forward to taking part in the various activities hosted there. The 1.35km track, on 2.4 hectares of land, can accommodate up to 25,000 spectators around the circuit. While races can be held for cub prix, the track is a favourite for sprint tests and drag racing along a 0.95km stretch.
