Aiya, why no lucky draw....

Is not a must but something is better than nothing, rite???
Everybody will have this kind of concept....


Very sad for those NQ(Not qualify) just TABAO and go home....

Cannot qualify at least can wait for lucky draw in order to keep those racer stay back mah.... I don't think you want those NQ racer just
go back after 3 heat meh...

schiff_ang

eric, it's not that sam does not want to hold a lucky draw, it's not his style. it's because this event warrants a permit from the police and hobbylink is not able to attain it (reasons? go ask sam).

as far as DNQs, it's inevitable... even in the real F1 race, Alex Yoong also did not qualify some time and wat would expect him to do? Pack and go? think most likely, he'll be watching the pros and starts to learn as much as he can so tat he will try to qualify in future races...

don't forget, there's a on-going exhibition...

since we cannot have a lucky draw at the expo race, why dun hobbylink organise a best looking body shell contest?? this will definitely add some more spice to the already exciting event. we have never had a body shell contest before and this will help to encourage pple to bring their nicest looking shells to show off in front of such a big crowd!!!

i would suggest dat only the shells used for racing dat day will be judged... this will prevent pple from using acrylic paints which look better but dun stick to polycarbonate so well...

this way, it will give pple who are not so good at driving a chance to win something... hee hee hee (something like lucky draw)

Freak

Hi Sciff Ang,
Since Bryan says that there so many sponsors for this race, how come you guys have no idea on what are the prizes for the A,B,C,D mains ? I mean there should be a guideline already for the prizes as this is a BIG race with many sponsors. I mean are the prizes for the champion of each main only or 1,2 and 3 or 1,2,3- 10th position ? So which one is it ? Dun keep us guessing lei cos i guess some of us want to be competitive in this event and win. And winning means money. So the money spent must be worth the prizes also la. Get it ? Anyway, how many international drivers are coming for this BIG event ? And who are they ? is Masami or Surikarn coming ? Hehehe........ want to get autograph la. Let us know the good news, okie.... we will be waiting...... *muack* love you sweetie

Errr........ dun freak me out, ok .......

schiff_ang

Freak - wah!! so realistic... winning means must win money... too bad we not singapore pools... ha ha
Bryan has already mentioned that he will be attending a meeting on the 28th with the main organizer. He will announce the final details after the meeting. As of now, it's not rite for me to 'leak' out these info since it's not finalized yet.
international drivers?? sam is one of them... ha ha... seriously me no idea too.

hope you not a guy... with yr 'kisses and love'... giving me the goose bumps...

see you and your frens in the race...

doctorj

Just to reconfirm. Are registered drivers to pay for entry to the hall on Sat & Sun for practice?

schiff_ang

doctorj - yes, for sat and sun, you have to pay $6 for the entry to the exhibition and also for your practices. do bear in mind that there's a proper pit area (with tables and chairs) for you to work on during your practices. As the exhibition will be expecting a lot of visitors, all drivers (during practices) are reminded to put their things at the pit area. thanks for your co-operation!!

Hi doctorj,

The daily entry fee of $6 applies for the 2 days of practice. So you can choose to come on Sat or Sun, or both days. Race officials (me, schiff and others) will be there to oversee the practice from 12-7pm and AC outlets (limited) will also be available. The pit area will be setup latest by Saturday morning, so means you can actually spend the entire afternoon practicing on the track

Please check the race info page at www.hobbylink.com.sg for the floor plan

On race day, entrance is free via a Competitor's Pass. If the main organiser can hand us the passes earlier, we will issue them we when see you during the practice days. Else on race day, you may approach the counter at the entrance to cross-check your name and collect your pass

Any more info I will put it up on the web or you can also call Sam at 67370934.

Have fun!

doctorj

Thanks. BTW, do we need to bring ext. cable for the AC outlet? If needed, approx. how long is required?
